I dont know to much about this war,except that it was messy.This is not an opinion,its pretty much the experience of a soldier from that war that I use to work with.He was a POW from that war and he only once talked about it.He got teary eyed and didnt want to go on,so I never asked again.He told me when he got out (after being freed)that he weighed 98lbs,he would drink his own piss (when captive).He said the vietnamese would put bombs on babys and blow them and US soldiers up. His buddys where interrogated on a chopper,they where thrown off it whether they gave info or not.Very horrible s*it,it fascinated me though,made me realize how some troops could very easily loose their minds,but he didnt(to a point,I guess).It blew my mind more that he was working at mickey ds with me and was making a mesely 7bucks an hour and was living in a crappy a** apartment in the hood.Deffinetely a lot of respect for these guys and current troops.I guess my opinion is that they deserve so much more.
