Honestly? It was. He did that dude a favor.

That’s what I’d think too, but I think once you’ve done it enough times, the thought of getting shot or injured doesn’t hit you untill later on. Plus I’m sure the adrenaline levels are really high during combat, so the medics don’t have time to think about getting killed, they have to focus on reaching the wounded, and avoiding getting shot. No time to think about anything else.

Those were the bloodiest years a good portion of south Vietnam and American deaths came that year because north Vietnam launched an offensive

No, you're wrong. Only Vietnam and the US invaded. There is no South Vietnam and North Vietnam.

It was the boomer's war, every male who came of age before 1973 had to deal with the draft, and that damn war. My uncle and my cousin had to go, uncle came back and my cousin didn't. My uncle was a Marine in 1968-69, door gunner on H34's, and came back in one piece, physically. My cousin was Navy, on an ammo ship the Vietnams hit with B40 rockets in Danang "bridge ramp" in 1969. There were 11 guys on that ship and one guy survived, (it wasn't him).

they shouldn’t be there in first place, what was the point of the war?

só júlia to stop the spread of communism. As Russia’s Iron Curtain swept over Europe, morons like Mcarthy terrified politicians and stroke fear into the hearts of the American people. However as brutal and bloody the war was, some good did come out of it.

@@gublicity So what were the good things that came out of it? Yeah maybe the military industry did gain money but that's it. Afaik the US hardly benefited from the Vietnam War, after all Vietnam did fall for communism right after the Americans realized they were not going to win it. So the whole purpose of it failed. Vietnam was basically the first war that the US has lost in the sense that it did not benefit from it the same way it benefited from other wars.

aabens well essentially it put a stalemate to communism in Asia, but I’m not disagreeing with you not much good came out of the war,

@SgtBaker16 I beg to differ he couldve easily rejected being sent out there for pretty much suicide and If he truly didnt want to go for the sake of letting the public know just how stressful war is then he would quit

SgtBaker16 By that logic, the soldiers aren’t brave because they’re simply doing what their employer orders. Your logic is flawed.

@SgtBaker16 remember this is far far after humans realised what war can do to people and just how easily someone could get killed or brutally injured...from things that arent even directed at someone for example a stray bullet from a firefight across the jungle couldve easily cut one of them down, or shrapnel from a bullet hitting a tree and splintering it into an entire platoon and not to mention the traps

@SgtBaker16 that may be true but you have to admit 10 times better than most media now

SgtBaker16 you don’t see reporters doing things like that today

I'm under the impression, based on the previous soldiers story, that the medic was the one who told the reporters about his fear, then they told it over footage. They did the before the medic I swear rewatch it

@@MrHocotateFreight i am sure that is the case but using that shot of him looking like a rabbit caught in the headlights along with that narrative, ESPECIALLY in comparison to the heroic warrior like demeanors of the other guys, is both sensational and unnecessary. Fear is a presupposition. My Pop was a medic with the 82nd and I only heard stories second hand about the nightmares he had picking up body parts and running out of morphine. His five brothers never stopped talking about the war. They lived for their tank, flight and Seabee stories. But Pop never said a word. So i particularly empathize with this kid

I think they were just portraying the reality of the situation. Heroes get scared shitless too. People need to know that. Now he’s a hero not only for his duty but also expressing his vulnerability to those who would not understand otherwise.

You’ve got to be scared to be brave

the radio operator is actually the most dangerous of the jobs but medic im sure was a very close second
