Vietnam was such a disaster and tragedy. Complete folly and showed who actually did the fighting and dying. War Crimes galore from every level of the US machine.
A fascinating insight into how fucked up things can get.
The one great thing though, is how we have all learned the terrible lessons and haven't embarked upon futile and costly wars ever since.
I felt so sorry for those young guys. Mostly poor, as the middle class and rich patriots preferred the working class to fight for them. As they do everywhere. But until the sibs if these families were included in the draft did any real effort to end it happen.
The Vietnamese insights were brilliant and moving. A tenacious and brave fighting force and people.
Still, look how far we have come when a four time cowardly bastard draft dodger, can become president.
He supported the war, just didn't fancy getting his tiny hands dirty.
