Welcome home brother.

Agreed,Thank you for your service.
Good video.
Thanks Crash.
OK. This was a blessing - my husband died a few years ago and was a Vietnam Veteran. g.
One of the few times in our history that our warriors were not held to high esteem. There should be no time in our history that they were ignored. Let's pray there is no time in our future that they aren't exalted.
Welcome home.
My step dad was a Viet Nam Vet. He spoke very little of it. Of what he did speak was so horrible I can't began to think of what he didn't speak. I do appreciate your guys service during a very political and civil period of unrest.
It is simply shameful how Vietnam vets were treated when they returned home. It makes me sick to my stomach thinking about how they were spit on and called baby killers and other horrible things. There is no way we can repair that slight but time does help plus we can recognize them today and thank them for their service.
For the record, when in uniform I have been thanked a couple times but never gotten free coffee or asked to have my picture taken. That was a bit over the top but it did make the point I guess.
My old scoutmaster was a green beret in Vietnam. He didn't talk about it very much but one day he was in San Francisco in dress uniform. He was a little nervous walking down the street when a group of guys came out of a bar, grabbed him, and drug him inside. He thought for sure he was going to get it but they all were happy to see him and insisted that he watch T.V. with them. At that moment one of the Apollo missions was landing on the moon and for that brief moment everyone was happy with the military. He was the guest of honor for a little while. It must have made an impression on him because it was one of the few stories about his military service I ever heard him tell and I still see him about once a week to this day.
Korea is another group of forgotten vets that we are still privileged to have with us.
A good video, it was a lonely time coming home
Korea wasn't a communist/anti-communist country as so many think. Korea was actually divided as part of the Potsdam Conference at the end of WWII. It was divided at the 38th because south of the 38th was part of the Japanese surrender. Then it was ruled by the U.S. and Soviets in yet another agreement in late '45. None of which involved the Koreans. Go figure. So the whole thing became a U.N. vs. Russia cold war chess game.
Korea, like Viet Nam was one of the first conflicts in which armies did not travel, conquer and come home. Instead, smaller groups were rotated in and out of both conflicts. In Korea it was at the division/company level. Viet Nam it became an individual rotation of soldiers. A stupid format that did not work well in WWII (see Repo Depos or Repple Depple) and worked even worse in Korea and Viet Nam.
It was the cross between the social issues that started in the '50s and escalated into the early '70s combined with a lack of finality for the conflicts. Just my opinion.
I just thought that Korea was overshadowed by WWII. Once Korea vets start thinning out, I'm sure there will be a mad dash to intervire them and create movies too. Sad that is what it takes.
An awful lot of our WWII vets were also Korea vets because they were recalled to service. A lot probably had to do with the draft and perceived government control over your life. I don't remember off hand when the numbers were drawn, 12/1 I think, but I can sure remember praying for my birth date to have been lost on the way to the fish bowl. I kept having this vision of a janitor picking up one of those plastic capsules off the floor with 2/6 written on the paper inside and tossing it into the trash.....Yes!
Man, somehow I got a bit of dust in my eyes when I watched that video. Bless for your link! My dad went thru all that crap before people realized that all who serve are heroes!
Made me cry
Tough to watch,..... too many friends no longer with us.....
Thanks for posting.
Thanks to all those here who have served our nation!
Can't watch it for more than a few seconds. Thank you for it anyway. As far as Korea is concerned, it was a very unpopular "war" as well. The media saturation of the public wasn't there as much as during VN.
Welcome Home Brothers.
Semper Fi
I was too young at the time to actually understand what was going on in Vietnam.
Welcome home.
DANG it, I must have my alergy working overtime, my eyes just wont quit watering. Guess I need to take the dog for a walk. Be back in a while.
Thad.
Simper Fi 3/5 darkhorse
It is SO good to finally see things like this. So many (FAR too many) never got the chance to see and know that their experiences, efforts, service and blood have, at long last, been recognized for what they truly were/are...
