@jackmartin8630... Thanks, you for your service and sacrifice during the Vietnam conflict and welcome home Sir. I dedicate these two songs from SSgt Barry Sadler 1966 record album "Ballad of the Green Beret." to you and all of our Vietnam Vets. 🙏 "I'm a Lucky One" SSgt Barry Sadler I'm going home my tour is done. I'm going home I'm a lucky one. But I left friends behind me. who won't come home no more. Yes many friends remain forever. On that bloody shore. But at night when I sleep I know my dreams will be. About my friends I left across the sea. I'll hear verbal young men harn laugh again out loud. We'll all be together in a happy crowd. But then I hear the sound of bullets whining overhead. Feel the crash of morters and all my firends are dead. My friends they fought and gave their all. My friends they died for freedoms call. As my dream is ending they'll come and say goodbye. Though I'm sound asleep a tear I'll cry And they say something which fills my heart with pain. Tell them about us Sadler don't let us die in vain. I'm going home my tour is done. I'm going home I'm a lucky one "Salute to the Nurses" SSgt Barry Sadler After the battle after the fight many owe their lives to the ladies and men in white And all of the men in this war torn land salute the nurses of Vietnam They know the awful toll of war each day they know more than any the price we pay A soldier his hands too burned to write a nurse takes down his words through the lonely night They have gone to the front where men fought in the night from Pleiku to Qui Nhon where war these men fight Many a wounded soldier pain is eased for a while by opening his eyes to see a nurses smile To each of the wounded on the operating shelf these nurses give a part of themselves I know every soldier to the last man will sometimes say a prayer for the nurses of Vietnam After the battle after the fight many owe their lives to the ladies and men in white And all of the men in this war torn land salute the nurses of Vietnam

@jackmartin8630... If you haven't seen this 2006 documentary Vietnam Nurses With Dana Delany it offers viewers a brief but powerful glimpse into nursing during the Vietnam War. The film combines provocative interviews with eight nurses-Maureen Adduci, Diane Carlson Evans, Dorothy Harris, Judy Herrington, Susan O'Neill, Candice Sullivan, Donna White, and Sharon Zimpher-with captivating film footage and photographs to produce an intellectually and visually compelling narrative that follows the women from their decision to become military nurses, through their wartime experiences, and their postwar recovery. Funded by Johnson & Johnson and Women's Entertainment Television, the documentary has won critical acclaim, including an Emmy Award for editing. The title of the video "Vietnam Nurses - Vietnam Women's Memorial - Documentary With Dana Delany" it's worth searching out. running 44:41 minutes in length Reply

As a 74 year-old disabled Vietnam Vet who served there with the army in 1969, when I was only 20, I thank you. The South Vietnamese people are some of the nicest people I have ever met. God bless you.

I served in combat Army 67/68. After a lengthy fire fight, as I was watching over the 26 KIA, a Vietnamese man got out of his car on a road nearby & thanked me. This was the 1st & only time. Your kind reply means a lot to those of us who were once young warriors thousands of miles away from home. Thank you. God bless all the RN's that cared, saved & held my brothers hand when they died. They will never be forgotten.

And you have every right to be angry.
