Are you Vietnamese?

Excellent article. I can remember that moment. boarding the plane. It is strange how we remember little tiny details the most.

ZuzooVn, no I’m not Vietnamese. I was an American soldier in Vietnam during the war.

Great to be back home, isn’t it?

great poem thanks for sharing

But it wasn’t over by Christmas, was it Guy. And for many it will never be over in your minds. Good work.

Great work.

War is never over. So much is lost and the memories gained can bring the bad stuff back, over and over again.

I feel for the men and women damaged to ‘bring us peace’.

It’s an honor to have served in the Vietnam War. Did you ever witness or have to pull out burned bodies out of a helicopter? It must be hard having to deal with grief or depression and just when you think it is over it comes back to haunt you. The memories will always be there.

great share

Nice Share.

Down memory lane….

Thanks for the share!

Love Doc, I saw a lot of action in Vietnam but not a lot of death. Let’s just say I saw enough death.

Guy, first let me say that this may the best yet… wonderful work.
My dad was in ‘Nam in ‘69 toward the end of his career and I want to say “Thank You”. You guys all did something very special…
As a vet myself I understand the importance of those words and know that you guys didn’t hear them often enough. Again, Thank You.

bigpapadan, I appreciate your “thank you.” Soldiers of all nations only do what they are ordered to do for good or evil.

Respect…. A part of me wants to go into war for the adventure but another part does not want to see death and suffering. I think the latter part is the one that will win. I’ll have to find adventure elsewhere.

I was just a kid during that time but I remember my older brother did two tours. It was a sad time in our history.
