I listen to one these videos every night to go to sleep. Really enjoy listening to them.

I am a marine vet and I enjoy listening to these men much much respect I wish they could get the respect they deserve

Dr. Roberts reminds me of my Dad. Gentle strength and a wonderful humor and humanity. Thanks you for serving this great country, and making the world a better place in your journey.

What a lovely gentleman. I also liked the old guy. Jk. This man served the people of Vietnam under the most horrible and challenging conditions, yet he brought good into the world in a time and place where it was so much lacking. He is truely an honorable and extraordinary man. Thanks Doc, you did good.

Wow! This man is a new personal hero of mine. I have so enjoyed hearing this story. It has literally brought me smiles , laughs and tears, Thank you, Dr. Roberts for being the awesome human being you are! God Bless you.

What a wonderful man, did amazing work with very little proper equipment. He acknowledges other people that he worked with, says so much of the character and humility of this great Dr and human being! Thank you sir, for your service and the good work you did!

Wish they were more people in world like this man ....wish I was half man he is

Class act ...I could listen to him all day.

I’m British but these guys are awesome men god bless them

I am a 68 yo Navy Veteran who salutes every Vietnam Veteran I encounter...Thank you Sir for your service

I am completely humbled and grateful for people like Dr. Roberts

These are just the best documentary of the Vietnam experience

They didn't "win" that medal, they earned it. A delightful man with great stories!! Thank you for your sacrifice and service sir!! What ever became of the infamous Dr. Jones!??

A real war story not a shot fired but i couldn’t take a pee break!!! Very interesting medics story and interviewer is great. Good luck to both.

Love all the interviews. I was in Montana in 68 and 69. Going to vietnam in 69 70 71. USAF. I really didn't know about this doctor's experience. Learn something new everyday. Thanks for your interviews. I can relate to many of them.

Thank you Dt David Roberts for sharing and caring. 💪❤🙏✌🇺🇸

Daryl you do the very BEST job interviewing. Great voice great laugh so respectful. Loves it.

Some great stories told by Dr. Roberts.

Outstanding interview. If the US (Truman speciically) had respected the vietnamese as people, the war never would have happened. National independence from the tyranny of colonialism isn't terribly hard a concept to understand.

Thank you doctor and all medical staff for your service.

In all honesty your series of videos is the most beneficial I have ever come across dealing with Viet Nam. I am making it my mission to see that it gains some exposure on social media.

The Doc is 100% right about unnecessary war. I spent the entire year of 69 there so feel that gives me license to add a little bit here. If you want to know the whole story of the Viet debacle, you should read "A Bright Shining Lie" by Neil Sheehan.

Thank you for your service. Excellent representation

Thank you for your service, Sir.

Thank you Dr. Roberts , your service is greatly appreciated.

I believe that this is one of the most amazing stories I've had the pleasure of listening to. I thank you very much for sharing and everything. Thanks for your inspiration and the very freedom I enjoy today.

One of the best sides of Vietnam. From a humanism point of view. I listen because no matter what I go through...it's nothing compared to these stories. Shows me how little my worries are and how much more I can become. My father and brother fought I'm Vietnam. And we have a flag from my uncle. My father was a lone survivor bullets everywhere but was the only one left standing. He couldn't understand but I said it was because he was destined to make me. He would never talk about it. Heard the story from my mom. My brother was a sniper and all he would say was he was very good at his job. My uncle I did not ever get to meet. I wish they would have told their stories like this.

Great communicator. I’m happy I saw this.

I did not want this interview to end. Thank you Doctor!

Dr. Roberts is a great speaker. He is pleasant and willing to share his experience in a combat zone.

His story is something straight out of MASH, when he talks about scrounging supplies I picture all of Hawkeye and Trapper's adventures trying to get supplies

Love these interviews. Host knows what he’s doing. Asks great questions and let’s them speak. For me, history is extremely interesting and important. I’ve probably watched every single Nam vet interview by the Billings Gazette.

What an amazing interview and what an absolute legend David is, I love these interviews and I love the soldiers. The camaraderie is amazing. Thank you so much for these interviews. I was born in 69. And realizing what legends I grew up around is absolutely awesome! Bless you for serving and those who have served our country.Bless the billings gazette!😇

Great series of interviews! I grew up a Marine brat during most of the Vietnam war. Dad was Mastersargent and his last tour was on Okinawa and we as a family got to go with him. This series stirred up memories of our time on the Island. Semper Fi to all that served during this time period and "Welcome Home" to All who served!

Thank you Dr. Robert for yourservice.

I can't wait to read his book ❤️ ☮️ thanks for sharing your story and thank you for getting these wonderful men's accounts 😉

I admire how he acknowledges the Use of the NCO Supply Sergeants. A true Officer that understands what NCO's can accomplish! I salute you Dr Roberts for an awesome interview and you respect for NCO's.

This would make an amazing movie!They out to bring a copy to Disney or Eastwood.His insight on the whole war is very insightful and honest.I've never looked at it the way he described it.Thank you Dr, Roberts,this is a very good interview and history lesson,God Bless.

Thank you for your service sir . So knowledgeable and compassionate man.

Thank you Dr. Roberts! Very good interview.

BG...your videos are amazing. It's nice to hear the truth from those that were in country. Thx to the Vets for sharing their experiences & sacrifices.

I like hearing from these gentlemen's experience, each with a different perspective to the war.

The most fascinating and informative Vietnam vet interview I have heard. What a hero.

My uncle joined the Marine Corp and served in Vietnam, he made it home and joined the Army, he became an Air America helicopter pilot after earning the rank of Warrant Oficer and flying slicks in Vietnam, he continued doing work all throughout the rest of the cold war, and this all happened after he dropped out of school and lied about his age to go to Paris Island at 17 years old. He was a very impressive person in many ways.

Thank you for your service from Louisville KY., I was in U of L a couple of weeks glad no cows stuck there head in my room.

Your interviews are the best. You let the veterans talk. This doctor is one hell of a man.

THANK YOU DAVID !

Ditto Metoo actually I started listening driving my Big Rig . I really enjoy the stories. I was never in the Military but I did contract in Iraq and I drove the only bus and me the only driver on a small FOB called Habbaniyah. I heard so many stories outside the wire and witnessed many inside the wire. I loved that work and our soldiers. I respect these men telling their stories it is a great education

Dr. Roberts, Your story and storytelling abilities are both phenomenal. You truly made a difference during your time in Vietnam. Your Yankee ingenuity is off the charts as well. Somehow, Thank You seems to be inadequate but that's all I can say to you. I believe God has a special place for someone like you who saved so many Vietnamese citizens and US soldiers too. Wishing you the best. Dan W

I believe that I can answer the Doctors unanswered question about treating enemy Soldiers as a POW. My Grandfather was a Combat Medic in WW1, My Father was a Combat Medic in Korea and continued to serve in the Cold War totaling 38 years Service I became a Combat Medic in 1975, I became duel trained as an Operating Theatre Technician as well, after 10 years I spent 4 years with British Special Forces. I was then deployed in a duel role With a front line Parachute Brigade to serve as either Combat Medic or as a member of a Surgical Team if there was difficulty in evacuation. I was seconded to 32 British Field Hospital during Desert Shield and Desert Storm. I was medically discharged after only completing 20 years Service. The Doctors Question; can you treat the enemy casualties as a POW??? According to the Geneva Convention, all Medical Personnel, providing they are wearing a Red Cross (or Red Cresent if appropriate) stamped with an official Unit Stamp technically you cant be held as a Prisoner of War but you can be kept as a Detained Person and put to work in your professional capacity. During Desert Storm All Casualties were treated in priority order and not nationality order. Hope this helps, Regards Ray... trooper23bear@gmail.com

Dr Roberts book sounds fascinating.... OMG, Under water seal drainage, volume expanders, car lights to operate... love it, bless them, what a thing to have to do to stabilise patients... amazing on the fly work....!.... Thank You For Your Service Sir.... 💞✌️🙏

Amazing story, Alan R.

Sounds like Doc Jones is the father of preventative medicine 😊 thanks Doc Jones if not for you we would probably still have our chow hall next to our slit latrines.

Absolutely brilliant, many many thanks Cheers Glenn

Awesome interview. Thank you for your service Dr. Roberts. It is people like you who give me hope for all humanity. Part of our healing following war is to hear the story of our brave people who served.

Thank you Dr. Roberts

my favourite yet

Thank you for your service sir

WOW what a story!

Great retelling of his experiences

your a great interviewer Daryl. thanks

I finally acquired a 1967 Benrus dtu military issued watch from Vietnam to honor these gentlemen.

Brilliant Journalism!

Love this guy❤️

Luv this Doc

Divine Providence, You where born to be a Doctor, Amen . This is the true account of how the V. C. treated the civilians.

This was ONE GREAT interview. Right at the start of the buildup.

Enjoy these alot

Very interesting man great human being

Who downvotes someone's personal story?

Love these veterans interviews but this one I fell asleep before it really even got going

I was in Quan Loi base camp for 8 months, convoyed there from Phouc Vinh on hwy 13... Went through tet there at the end of January 1968...By the time we got there, they had GP large tents for everyone and were still there when I went home in May of 68..I remember the swimming pool that the french had there...I didn't know there was a golf course where the runway was...Rubber trees on ether side...It was also called fire base andy because of arty at the end of the runway...Ist infantry and graves registration were the only other things there..I remember the little french guy in white shorts and knee high socks boarding his private plane...It always made me wonder when he left, why the rockets would fly.. No PX anywhere that I knew of ...We received Sundry packs which had a variety of things, they only gave those out where there isn't a PX...An Loc and Loc Ninh were bad places...Just about 3+ miles away...

Wow, he’s told some great stories about how to improvise.

Hi I'm 38 with parents and father served and a lot of their friends I have known throughout the years. I would like to get their story and was wondering how I would go about doing that and having it preserved. I like you're doing I'm in Upstate New York and as the years go by I see more and more stories go with it.

I love your laugh. It's without guile.

I'm from Louisville Kentucky too right coincidence

This guy is full of good stories. Not PTSD depressing.

Why haven't you dont more of these

Nice fellow

Is this the true source of the Beatles song, Dr. Robert? Written in 1966 it seems quite possible.

Has anyone ever told you Darrel Erlick sounds a lil too much like derelict? Maybe just go by Erlick or Darrel but not derelict.

AMEN AT 1:15. "WE DONT CARE WHO WINS; WE JUST WANT IT OVER" VC

Can’t go to West Point because of glasses, but gets sent to Vietnam to possibly die. Something is horribly wrong with that.

You normally ask what is your worst day / experience & I am sorry you didn’t with the Doc.

I looked to purchase his book on Amazon but the price is a little steep, 100.00.

“Yes Virginia, We did some good deeds!”

Interesting that he said that Al Gore Jr. was not born yet. Al Gore Jr. was born in 1948 and went to Vietnam from 1969 - 1971.

20:09 that laugh😂

Milo Minderbinder! (Catch-22) Supply Sargents as wheeler dealers and medical heroes!

You went to Vier Nam a doctor and came back a pretty good thief : )

"You Do What You Got To Do". There is an alternative view of that statement as it pertains to Vietnam. I did what I had to do. I registered for the Draft then proceeded to resist it and Vietnam. It was an illegal war and every honest veteran knows they didn't really have a right to be there. The US was an aggressor and invader in an Asian civil war. No American territory or Americans were attacked by Vietnam. If I didn't stand up for myself and refuse Vietnam I would have considered myself an enabler of my country's dysfunctional foreign policy. It was b/c of the hundreds of thousands of guys like myself that helped speed up the withdrawal of US forces and end a 10 year national nightmare and tragedy. Vietnam was being torn apart...and so was the USA. Veterans need to get it straight that patriotism has more than one face.

I googled the swedish doctor thing and its false a swedish general practice doctor makes 10 times as much as the average truck driver...

This guy talks like a politician

Everyone,Vietnamese,Americans,Laotians,Cambodians,and every other country involved can thank Truman for the Indochinese and Vietnam Wars along with the wars in Laos and Cambodia. Ho Chi Minh wrote Truman numerous letters before the end of WW2 wanting to become a US protectorate.No,Truman ignored them and not only that he just had to suck up/off the Frogs and let them reclaim Vietnam as a colony....even though it was agreed before the end of WW2 that there was to be no more countries holding others as colonies.Which this was intentionally left out of the book Street Without Joy.....known as La Rue Sans Joie by the Frogs during their war or Route 1 by the US during the war. Every single death from 1945 on in SEA can be given credit to Truman and his administration......another POS decision by Democraps...

I really like this series, but the interviewer always steers too hard. You just ask a fee guiding questions and then let the men speak. This guy will change the entire flow of a fantastic interview to ask a checklist of questions he asks to every vet he interviews.

The hungry statistic incidentally pull because athlete unusually realise out a tacit love. resolute, utopian farm

Thank you for your service sir
