The Vietnam War Thread

Started by RedAlertv22 pages

anyone read the book about the Tunne Rats? They were American soldiers whose job was to explore VC tunnel systems. Its pretty crazy how the Vietnamese lived in these tunnels, sometimes for years. Its also amazing that any soldier would be willing to crawl into a dark tunnel that might very well be full of booby traps. the book is called Tunnels of Cu Chi. Interesting read.

I've read of them in other books, that must've been some assignment... i'd hate to be one of those guys...

I agree with who kid saying america had no business there... of course they were only trying to clean up the mess the french had created...

but being there at all, the american army really should have won, and the fault must lie with the administration for all the failures of the war...

it also saddens me that vets tend to get mistreated due to fighting in what could be termed as an unjust war... and shit like tiger force didnt help either...
