Forty years after the end of the conflict, unexploded bombs, secret tunnels and other vestiges of the long combat still exist in Vietnam. Directors: Guilain Depardieu, Timothée Janssen
The Vietnamese had been fighting invaders for a thousand years by the Vietnam War. They had fought the Chinese, the French, the Japanese and others before they fought the Americans.
I served as a Marine infantry in Vietnam in 68-69.....Vietnam is a beautiful country and green as it can be...the people are very hard working in an agricultural society...they live in hooches with many generations in the same home ....they put a great emphasis on age and experience in life so the elderly are looked upon as resources and they are listened to for their resolution too problems that all farmers have worldwide....they are a tough people because they have been invaded and reinvaded for a couple hundred years...China,French,Japanese and the American have at one time or other been occupied Vietnam....they have kept their identity and now are now the fastest growing country in Asia.....wishing them success in their emerging as a nation....how can you you beat a people that refuse to be beaten
Thank you for your service. It’s one of the only place America has occupied you can still vacation as an American and not only be safe but be treated amazing. They’re friendly but fierce ppl.
I am from the UK. I have had the pleasure of visiting Vietnam on a number of occasions. One of our guides told us that he took a group of US veterans back to an area where they fought. They fell into conversation with some locals through him. It came about that they had been on opposite sides during one particular battle on a certain date. Amazing coincidence perhaps to just come across each other on the day they visited? A mutually respectable conversation took place, soldiers thrown into conflict, sharing their experiences. My wife and I love the country and the people.
The fortitude of the Vietnamese was amazing....they shot at us when ever they got an escape route stirred u OK the honest without getting stung....they were building booby traps and making the components out of what ever they found...they are amazing and deserve to run their country in the manner they choose....we referred to them as Mr VC and Mr NVA as a sign of respect for their fighting prowess. .I think about if America was occupied we would be getting in our share of jabs
look up mr john stryker meyer i think that may be the one your talking about theres a video of his meeting with vietnamese commander on the very scene of where they faced in battle near the borders of laos ,they guy was like i remember you u shot me and laughed it off together like gentlemen the verbal stories are insane both sides these guys are legends of their time still going out there reminisce reconcile together and trying to find what happened to the fallen mia trying to bring them home
I visited Ho Chi Min City (Saigon ) and nearly drop a tear when I was in the war museum.. I have a huge respect for Vietnamese people.. The resilience is unmatched!!!!!

@@aarmidah4264để tôi giải thích cho bạn . người Việt Nam khi thấy đất nước bị xâm lược sẽ không chạy tị nạn sang Indonesia hay bất kỳ quốc gia nào khác chúng tôi sẽ ở lại đất nước đấu tranh cho tự do của dân tộc mình . Những người mà bạn gọi là người tị nạn Việt Nam đó là những người thuộc chế độ VNCH , chế độ bù nhìn tay sai của đế quốc Mỹ . Khi chúng tôi đánh đuổi được Mỹ và thống nhất đất nước . thì những người đã phản bội chính đất nước của mình bán mình cho giặc đã chạy chốn , rời bỏ quê hương bằng cách vượt biên . Nên Việt Nam chúng tôi không mang ơn Indonesia. Vì những người Indonesia cứu giúp không phải là người Việt Nam yêu nước.
A wonderful documentary. As a Vietnamese, my grandpa and uncles sacrificed and lost their lives in this war. I was deeply moved watching this and extremely proud to be resilient Vietnamese 🇻🇳 . Hope for peace worldwide 🇻🇳✌️
Respect from a U.S. citizen who was never in the military. I watched this to gain a better understanding. P.S. I am now retired, but my boss for over a decade fled Vietnam as a child around 1972. He is very smart, kind and disciplined. His father was in the south Vietnamese military.
My uncle volunteer for the Marine Corps in 1966. He was hit by shrapnel from a mine and was left a paraplegic until he died in 2023. He lost the use of both legs, his right arm, and suffered an anoxic brain injury from dying several times on the operating table and his brain not getting enough oxygen. This war was totally pointless. And people still suffer from it to this day. Our government should be ashamed.
I agree100% normally I would hesitate to say a war was pointless because it feels kind of like I'm disparaging the fighting soldiers sacrifices but this was a pointless war and 58000+ Americans died for no good reason. The Vietnam war is the polar opposite of WW2.
Vietnam, never did 1 thing to the UNITED STATES. SO DISGUSTING THIS AND ALL. THE WORST CONTROL OVER A COUNTRY WAS ROME TAKING OVER OVER JUDAH AND KILLING: JESUS: ...THAT DAY SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE LAST CONTROL, BUT BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T TRUST JESUS, TODAY...WAR AND KILLING WILL CONTINUE.
My wife is Vietnamese-American. Her parents lived through the war, came to America. She’s tough as nails. They’re absolutely nuts, in a good way. Nobody will understand these people’s durability until you meet them and live with them up close. ❤️
I married my best friend of over 30years and she’s Vietnamese, I love how loyal their family is, they look out for each no matter what…it’s been an amazing experience getting to know her massive family members and to hear all of their courageous stories about experiences from fleeing Vietnam to getting robbed by Thai pirates to living on Bidong Island .. By January 1979, there were 40,000 Vietnamese on the island and by June 1979 it was said to be the most densely populated place on earth with about 40,000 refugees crowded into a flat area hardly larger than a football field.
My first longtime GF was Vietnamese. Her and her brother were the first generation born in The US. They were amazing people and treated me very well even though I'm white. I had a rough homelife and lived with her and her family for a few years. Her mom would wake up at 5AM to cook me breakfast before work even after working in their restaurant until 12 or 1 in the morning. Super hard working people and very loyal. I hope they're doing well.
@@jonathankenton7182 If you watch documentaries about Vietnam today it has come a long way. Although it calls itself communist like China it’s capitalist in some ways. It is much more industrialised now and has millionaires just as China does.
Actually this isn't the case, this WAS an invasion of the south by the north to impose communism on them. The VC were a minority and couldn't win. It was Russia, China and North Vietnam that ultimately beat the south.
Oh yes, the sheer fanaticism of the NVA was terrifying. Every bit as willing to die as the Japanese, how do you fight enemy that responds to 10,000 men crushed by sending 10,000 more? The worst thing about this bloody tragic mess was, all the politicians from Johnson on down, realized such a war was unwinnable but sent Americans anyway. Didn't care that the mess was basically a civil war, with limited support from the dreaded communists, and not really about more communist expansion. The proof of this, is that in 1979 when the Viets invaded China's ally Cambodia, the Chinese launched a huge punitive cross-border invasion of Vietnam just to make the point they were displeased.
Vietnamese people didn't unite, as Vietnam War was a civil war between the free and prosperous Republic of South Vietnam backed by the free world and the wretched, totalitarian, and bloodthirsty North Vietnamese Commie regime backed by global Communist giants Commie Soviet and Commie China. It's not different than Korean War which was similarly a civil war between freedom loving South Korea versus the North Korean Commie terrorists also backed by the same global Commie butchers Soviet and China, both collectively slaughtered more than 100 million in their own countries alone. There is nothing imperial about American defense of the free world against Communist disease, an existential threat to world peace and a stain on humanity. US helped Western Europe and Japan after WW2, just like US helped Korea. All of these nations prospered. Similarly, US helped Vietnam but only military outcome was different due to its eventual cut of support. In contrast, all the vassal states of Commie Soviet and China crumbled and poor, with massive exodus of citizens escaping brutality and enslavement by utterly corrupt and barbarian Communist dictators, including those Commie China's puppets running Vietnamese Commie regime, still ongoing, evidenced by 39 dead Vietnamese immigrants found in UK container truck on the news, and that's only what's been reported, as the real figure is much higher.

Vietnamese people have a profound understanding of the pain and loss wrought by war. Over nearly 1000 years, they endured Chinese domination, followed by a century of conflict against the French and Americans, as well as the 1979 border war with China. While documentary films accurately depict aspects of Vietnam's history, but it is only a small part of Vietnam's history. War, in its wake, leaves only devastation and anguish for all parties involved. That's why, in times of peace, Vietnam always wanted reconciliation and goodwill with all countries in the world. Hope for peace in the world🤝
The current Vietnamese Commie is a puppet regime installed by Commie China. That's why it often brutally suppressed any anti-China protests in Vietnam, and only strategically let these protests proceed on occasions to remind Commie China that it controlled the Vietnam population for its master. All true.
All my Dad wanted to do was go to college and get a good job. He loved listening to Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry, CCR, Marshall Tucker Band. I miss you Daddy.
Morrison took his daughter Emily, then one year of age, to the Pentagon, and either set her down or handed her off to someone in the crowd before setting himself ablaze. He died within two minutes of leaving in an ambulance for Fort Myer.[9] Morrison's reasons for taking Emily are not entirely known. However, Morrison's wife Anne later recalled, "Whether he thought of it that way or not, I think having Emily with him was a final and great comfort to Norman... [S]he was a powerful symbol of the children we were killing with our bombs and napalm - who didn't have parents to hold them in their arms."[10] In a letter he mailed to Welsh, Morrison reassured her of the faith in his act. "Know that I love thee ... but I must go to help the children of the priest's village". McNamara described Morrison's death as "a tragedy not only for his family but also for me and the country. It was an outcry against the killing that was destroying the lives of so many Vietnamese and American youth." He was survived by Anne Welsh and three children, Ben (who died of cancer in 1976), Christina and Emily.😢
@@anthonymoore3498 The USA was obsessed with the domino theory and thought that if Vietnam was Communist after the French left then other countries would follow including possibly India, Australia and New Zealand. As a result they supported a corrupt unpopular government the people didn’t want. A government that mistreated non Catholics, the poor and the peasants. The USA knew how bad the South’s government was but accepted it because it was anti communist.
I'm Gen X but my father fought in Vietnam and me growing up he never spoke a word about it. He spent the rest of his life as a working , reserved , quiet alcoholic that rarely would smile or chuckle. I believe this was caused by his time in the war and how he lived with it until passing away at age 59. The ironic thing is many of my friends happen to be Vietnamese both in the States and online still in Vietnam, so I found this documentary to be quite interesting.
@@benimadhavmohanty7426 Correct your math? If he was 19 in 1959, and passed away in 1999 he would have been 59 when he passed. Point is, you have no idea when he entered the war, what age he was, nor do you know what year he passed away, you just assume he passed recently. Please correct

An agricultural chemical company based in New Plymouth North Island of New Zealand on the west coast of New Zealand produced Agent Orange for the US Government. The company also dumped lots of 44 gallon drums of the chemical in and around New Plymouth. The family that owned that company are totally responsible for the environmental impact on Vietnam but also the birth of vietnamese children without arms legs and so on. Crimes of humanity of the worst kind. I have been to Vietnam and witnessed myself the devastation of the environment where Agent Orange was dropped nothing grows there anymore. I have seen adults without limbs and young children that are still affected by Agent Orange.
Genocide and crimes against humanity were committed and all protagonist including politicians, commanders and soldiers are all responsible for all the crimes committed individually.
@@KAMNA_Muriuki No, this is mostly on the leaders. Soldiers were often there against their will and had no idea what they are dropping. They most likely knew: "It makes the streets clear from the jungle so we dont get ambushed" and thats it. Probably not even the militaries knew from the beginning. Most likely the company knew it all and maybe SOME officials in the US. But it takes time and the companies are surely not waving around how insanely toxic their product is. Rather the opposite - "Yes Mr- President, its so safe, infants can eat it, no problem"

As a teenager in the 60s and 70s in Vancouver 🇨🇦, I watched the Vietnam War on the 6:00 news every night. It was quite graphic and disturbing seeing wounded soldiers. They always finished with a body count that was usually 10 to 1 in favor of the US. TV news ever since has been heavily censored.
that was propaganda...I spoke to an old soldier, he said the Vietnamese had tunnels, and would clear their men prior to the smoke clearing, so they couldn't count the men, the old man, may he rest in peace, told me, he never got close to anyone because they lost so many men

@almarch-jw9lk This morning, I discovered an interesting statistic, “America Has Been At War 93% of the Time - 222 Out of 239 Years - Since 1776“, i.e. the U.S. has only been at peace for less than 20 years total since its birth. I wanted to check, get a better understanding and look at other countries in the world.Mar 19, 2017
You didn't show the horrible crippled n disfigured children born into Vietnamese families due to chemical contamination. That part of war is missing in this valuable documentary. Thanks.
Chất độc dioxin nó ảnh hưởng khủng khiếp kéo dài nhiều thế hệ sau đó. Những đứa trẻ sinh ra không được lành lặn và quái dị. Điều này đã ảnh hưởng rất nhiều cho thế hệ kế cận sau chiến tranh của dân tộc Việt Nam.
"That part of war is missing in this valuable documentary." - Propaganda is more like it, when facts are presented, shall we say, in the most biased ways. A couple of examples: 3:45 "In the South, some residents refused the alliance with the Americans..." Those "residents" were the VCs, from the North VNmese army, infiltrating the South countryside and coerced the farmers, peasants into their ranks. Otherwise the general population LOVED "the alliance with the Americans" who helped them kick VCs butts... 43:00 Those thousands of bodies are not "lying somewhere", they had been eviscerated to bits and pieces during battles "40 yrs ago" and here comes the "archeologist" and his team trying to recover some (3 "bodies" in this one location) - what a farce. The VNmese get paid handsomely for sifting through all that layers of mud, no wonder the GI vets feel so welcome. Win win situation on both sides, for sure.
I served as a US Marine (5 Jan 1969-13 Aug 1970)--Through the years I have learned and taken a completely different perspective than what was presented to us back in that era. The prevailing ideology of that period is what it is and cannot be changed. I regret that so many lives on both sides were negatively affected, not only those who died, but those who were physically maimed and mentally traumatized for life. I feel as much anguish for those we fought against as I do for those who fought with us and have the same respect for all.
"I feel as much anguish for those we fought against...and have the same respect," If you meant the VCs then do some research/reading before feeling "anguish" on their behalf. They were the invaders, North VN against South VN, it's war crimes no 1. Taking into account that VNmese on both sides were/are of the same race, (the Viet race) that's internal- genocide (or fratricide, killing one's own brother), ie war crimes no 2. The fact that the North finally won the war doesn't exculpate them of their crimes. Criminals deserve condemnation, not respect.
Been there on holiday 2022 stunning country lovely friendly people . & might I add it’s not just jungle . Vietnam is a very modern & up coming country . Would put most western countries to shame . Absolutely loved my holiday in Vietnam ❤️
As long as Vietnam is still ruled by the oppressive and exploitive Communist regime, her potential remains greatly diminished. For any 1% that wants to stay, 99% of the population wants to get out, and many have risked their lives doing just that (for example, 39 doomed lives found in UK container truck recently on the news, and that's only what's been reported), unfortunately. Yet another shocking and also recent example is that during the Covid pandemic when almost all countries assisted their citizens with financial aids in one form or another, the corrupt and murderous Vietnamese Commie regime saw it just as another opportunity not to help but to exploit its ruled citizens even more, essentially making money over the corpses of its citizens by presumably killing at least 30-50K of them, due to grossly misdiagnoses and being thrown into barbwired unhygenic living quarters for isolation, so that they had to sleep on concrete floor, even next to filled trashcans, with inadequate toilet, food, water, or medicine, like animals (searching hard enough, one is able to see shocking video clips on Facebook though the regime tried hard to crack down the leaks by Vietnamese citizen journalists), with the fake nostril Covid test kits, mislabeled as approved by World Health Organization (WHO) in Việt Á scandal, colluded by at least 4 different government agencies (Y Tế , Khoa Học, Công Nghệ, Quân y) and the top Politburo members, including Nguyễn Phú Trọng, Phạm Minh Chính, Nguyễn Xuân Phúc. Murderous Vietnamese Commie regime even had a thug murdered Christian pastor Giuse Trần Ngọc Thanh, like it has done with many other pastors across the nation. There is a reason why the current Commie Vietnam ranks at the bottom of the world in freedom of speech, (true) freedom of religion, and freedom of the press, barely above Commie China and Commie North Korea. There is no true freedom of religion in Commie Vietnam, as this corrupt Vietnamese Commie regime only authorized the fake organizations headed by Commie monks, many of whom were Commie Party officials, and those religious organizations not approved to be infiltrated by them or headed by their Commie agents are accused of malicious and nonexistent crimes and banned, with innocent religious leaders arrested and jailed, as in the recent case with Thiền Am Bên Bờ Vũ Trụ, a harmless Buddhist meditation monastery, for simply having many followers (hence, more influences that the regime fears it can't control) than the Commie Party's officially approved ones. Similarly, its passport ranks at the bottom, 89th out of 111 countries for a reason, barely above North Korea 104th rank. even below many African nations. For comparison, South Korea is at 2nd rank. That's what Republic of South Vietnam would have likely been ranked among at least the top 10 had it not been invaded and occupied by the North Vietnamese Commie terrorists, aided by Commie Soviet and Commie China. Search "cuop dat dan" (meaning "land-robbing of citizens") to see millions of footages across the country from North to South, spanning for decades, dated back to Ho Chi Minh's bloody land reform 1953-1956 that killed nearly 1 million North Vietnamese in only 4 years, or 250K people brutally slaughtered in torturous painful deaths (like being shot, stabbed, mutilated while being alive, or heads being plowed over by water buffaloes while bodies being buried underground) each year on average to rob their lands and homes. Even today, if the rightful owners refuse to have their homes or lands robbed, the ruthless Vietnamese Commie terrorist regime simply jail or massacre them, have tractors run over their bodies or openly assassinate them in their own homes. When it comes to robbing, these barbarian Vietnamese Commie bandits even prey on each other, just as the recent case with then 84-year-old Mr. Lê Đình Kình, a 55-year-Commie Party veteran from Dong Tam, near Hanoi, that got shot dead at 3am in his own home by the Vietnamese Commie terrorist regime. When his wife Mrs. Dư Thị Thành refused to lie about the incident as ordered, the Vietnamese Commie terrorist police brutally tortured her (see more details from "dandongtam" on Facebook). The corrupt Vietnamese Commie government officials routinely dine on lavish gold-plated Salt Bae steak $100K per meal with blood money not just from taxpayers but also from robbed-lands and robbed homes recently drew international condemnations, while many Vietnamese citizens, including elderlies in their 60's and 70's as well as kids as young as 6's to 16's selling lottery tickets on the streets to survive on $2-3 per day. Even Phạm Nhật Vượng the richest man in Vietnam (via his VinGroup) made the bulk of his wealth mainly by colluding with the barbarian Vietnamese Commie regime in selling their robbed-lands from Vietnamese citizens. Travelers to Vietnam in her current form (not at all like this before the Communists took over) should keep this in mind. Behind the beauty of the land and smiling faces at popular tourist destinations, there are a lot of darkness and tears, bloods, sweats, sorrow, horror, and sufferings all over the country.

I am very sorry about his death, at least he was a brave man who dared to stay and face defeat, not run away like other army generals. To respect the deceased, we will not discuss why he was held for 10 years. You can be completely proud to be Vietnamese, with a history of fighting foreign invaders for thousands of years, including the Mongol empire, which occupied most of Eurasia but failed 3 times in Vietnam.

Các bạn nghĩ hai đại chiến thế giới 1 và đại chiến thế giới 2 tàn khốc nhất lịch sử ư, cũng đúng nhưng chả là gì so với chiến tranh việt nam. Trong Thế chiến 2, số lượng bom rơi xuống Việt Nam là lớn nhất trong lịch sử quân sự, với ước tính khoảng 6,2 triệu tấn bom, giờ hãy Lấy số liệu lượng bom thế chiến 1 và thế chiến 2 cộng lại rồi so sánh với lượng bom được sử dụng ở Việt Nam Thế chiến 1: Ước tính khoảng 1,4 triệu tấn bom đã được sử dụng trên các chiến trường trên toàn cầu.

United States dropped 7,500,000 tons of bombs on SE Asia. Of that we dropped 2,000,000 tons on Laos. North and South of Vietnam received the rest, a huge amount of bombs. Robert McNamara adopted "statistical principles" of war, and Harvard Business School managment techniques instead of leadership. The US Army was in a state of mutiny by 1971. Vietnamese people worked very hard to toss out Americans. One in four young men who left North Vietnam through jungle trails died on the trip south. Some had tattoos that said "Born in the North to die in the South". The Vietnamese people had an ally - the common American person. By 1967 we were fed up with what we were doing in Vietnam. A lot of Americans did not understand what we were doing in Vietnam. Lyndon Johnson lost the 1968 Democratic Party primary to Eugene McCarthy in New Hampshire. Peace Protesters helped McCarthy to win. Johnson decided not to run for President. The US bombings of 1972 were an attempt to force concessions on behalf of the Republic of Vietnam. By 1973 the US was tired, disgusted and angry.

One thing we need to remember is never trust your enemy during a truce. I was there in 1971. I have a Vietnamese daughter who found me 5 years ago and I now live with. Beautiful loving person that I am fortunate to have in my life.
I grew up facing this war, watching the news daily, the Government telling us we lost 50 men today but we killed 400 VC…day after day, year after year. I began thinking “how many do they have?” Finally, facing the draft to be in a war, not wanting to be the last guy KIA, I enlisted in the USAF. I saw and experienced the war without seeing combat…as the American people turned on the uniform, the only thing they could disdain…and they did. The looks of hatred, being accused of being “baby killers etc”, spoken softly so we alone could hear them. I wore the uniform only on base, wearing a cap to hide my GI haircut. 20 years later at a training session for work, Viet Nam vets were asked to stand and were welcomed home and thanked. I cried. My heart aches when I think about the devastation.

My Dad met my Grandpa at the age of 7 years when my Grandpa came back from a Russian Gulag in 1949 after 5 years of arrest. We are farmers with huge families in history, not interested in politics or War. But at one point the Nazis take all they can get to waste them for the shit. My family lost 7 Men just my two Grandpa and some cousins of my Grandma survived this shit war.I hate all this shit and feel sad for my father he was a good guy but a rude alcoholic because of his childhood...I was beaten a lot when I was young because he learned the same way to be a "good " boy and Men later. Its just one sad story but many families in this world share this experiences. Just fucking politics wants a War and didn't care about the huge amounts of casualties. Make friendships not wars ❤
i´ve been to Vietnam 5 times, it´s a amazing country and people. I can highly recommend to visit the Cu CHI tunnel system outside HCMC. There´s traces of history everywhere in Vietnam and trust me, it´s bloody traces. I´ve never seen so many kids with no arms or legs or other horrible things. And what is it now? 3rd generation after that war?? I´ve been to 39 countries in my life, for some reason Georgia and Vietnam are my favorites. Cheers from Denmark
@@FinnTravel2 Hejsan kompis..After 7 years in SE-asia i got tired of asia, and then relocated to Tbilisi. First i was there on short trip, and i really liked it, so relocated to GE. Why?? Great people, very cheap cost of livings, a looong warm summr from april to october, delicious food and a fantastic nature up north. Or if you want Black sea beach then go to Batumi. 4 hours flight from Copenhagen to Georgia directl just cost me $60 (Wizz air) instead of 10,5 hours from Copenhagen to Bangkok. Another thing was : i can stay in Georgia 1 year, without visa and without 90 day permission like in Thailand. In fact i will travel to Kutaisi 27th may. Will make some vids as well. It´s a hidden gem,mate..simple as that 👌

yes we still remember your presence in Vietnam War, and I heard rumors about your Australian soldiers' kind-heartedness towards our Vietnamese civilians. Your way of fighting was respectable.
Outstanding documentary 👍 many thanks to all those involved in the making of this film it's a shame history repeats itself mankind never seems to learn from its past mistakes 🤷
Very good video with good contribution from local warriors and victims. Eventually, more will be disclosed. I visited Vietnam many times for business and holidays. The era of Vietnam people progressing is imminent. Solid resilient people.

Im a Vietnam veteran served in 68 -69 was wounded by a mortar .....but would like to see the country succeed but going back there would bring back emotion that have taken 55yrs to evolve to peaceful place inside me....Vietnam molded my life to realize that there is nothing as disgusting as war and nothing that can make up for the suffering experienced by both sides....war is hell but combat is a Mother

@@JefferyAshmore There's no record of any Chinese general presented in the South to be got. While we have a lot of footages of American pilots in Hanoi. You've no idea of how to play this game do you? Fighting hard or not does not justify your action.
It is estimated that South Vietnam lost between 200,000 and 250,000 fighters. The Viet Cong lost around 1.1 million combatants. Around 2 million civilians were killed in the territories of North and South Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. It is suspected that over 1.2 million of these deaths were murders.
After Tet offensive, Phoenix campaign of CIA and south Vietnam captured and killed about 20 000 people who were suspected of being a communist and sympathetic to communism.

I have a lot of respect for the Vietnamese who fought for their country, and sadness for the American troops who had to be there. More sadness though we can’t solve things without death.
You're probably not wrong. No invading army ever did well. There were the Mongols all the way up to the French and the US . After the beat, the Chinese, and helped stop the murderous khmer rouge

I am from the UK. I have had the pleasure of visiting Vietnam on a number of occasions. One of our guides told us that he took a group of US veterans back to an area where they fought. They fell into conversation with some locals through him. It came about that they had been on opposite sides during one particular battle on a certain date. Amazing coincidence perhaps to just come across each other on the day they visited? A mutually respectable conversation took place, soldiers thrown into conflict, sharing their experiences. My wife and I love the country and the people.
The fortitude of the Vietnamese was amazing....they shot at us when ever they got an escape route stirred u OK the honest without getting stung....they were building booby traps and making the components out of what ever they found...they are amazing and deserve to run their country in the manner they choose....we referred to them as Mr VC and Mr NVA as a sign of respect for their fighting prowess. .I think about if America was occupied we would be getting in our share of jabs

My uncle volunteer for the Marine Corps in 1966. He was hit by shrapnel from a mine and was left a paraplegic until he died in 2023. He lost the use of both legs, his right arm, and suffered an anoxic brain injury from dying several times on the operating table and his brain not getting enough oxygen. This war was totally pointless. And people still suffer from it to this day. Our government should be ashamed.
I agree100% normally I would hesitate to say a war was pointless because it feels kind of like I'm disparaging the fighting soldiers sacrifices but this was a pointless war and 58000+ Americans died for no good reason. The Vietnam war is the polar opposite of WW2.

I married my best friend of over 30years and she’s Vietnamese, I love how loyal their family is, they look out for each no matter what…it’s been an amazing experience getting to know her massive family members and to hear all of their courageous stories about experiences from fleeing Vietnam to getting robbed by Thai pirates to living on Bidong Island .. By January 1979, there were 40,000 Vietnamese on the island and by June 1979 it was said to be the most densely populated place on earth with about 40,000 refugees crowded into a flat area hardly larger than a football field.
My first longtime GF was Vietnamese. Her and her brother were the first generation born in The US. They were amazing people and treated me very well even though I'm white. I had a rough homelife and lived with her and her family for a few years. Her mom would wake up at 5AM to cook me breakfast before work even after working in their restaurant until 12 or 1 in the morning. Super hard working people and very loyal. I hope they're doing well.

What makes a nation unstoppable is its people being United. They would've never gave up, they would've fought to the last.
Actually this isn't the case, this WAS an invasion of the south by the north to impose communism on them. The VC were a minority and couldn't win. It was Russia, China and North Vietnam that ultimately beat the south.
tell that to Japan in WW2 .they gave up .
Oh yes, the sheer fanaticism of the NVA was terrifying. Every bit as willing to die as the Japanese, how do you fight enemy that responds to 10,000 men crushed by sending 10,000 more?
The worst thing about this bloody tragic mess was, all the politicians from Johnson on down, realized such a war was unwinnable but sent Americans anyway. Didn't care that the mess was basically a civil war, with limited support from the dreaded communists, and not really about more communist expansion. The proof of this, is that in 1979 when the Viets invaded China's ally Cambodia, the Chinese launched a huge punitive cross-border invasion of Vietnam just to make the point they were displeased.
united? Vietnam War was a Civil War. Don't be fooled by the propaganda.
Vietnamese people didn't unite, as Vietnam War was a civil war between the free and prosperous Republic of South Vietnam backed by the free world and the wretched, totalitarian, and bloodthirsty North Vietnamese Commie regime backed by global Communist giants Commie Soviet and Commie China. It's not different than Korean War which was similarly a civil war between freedom loving South Korea versus the North Korean Commie terrorists also backed by the same global Commie butchers Soviet and China, both collectively slaughtered more than 100 million in their own countries alone. There is nothing imperial about American defense of the free world against Communist disease, an existential threat to world peace and a stain on humanity. US helped Western Europe and Japan after WW2, just like US helped Korea. All of these nations prospered. Similarly, US helped Vietnam but only military outcome was different due to its eventual cut of support. In contrast, all the vassal states of Commie Soviet and China crumbled and poor, with massive exodus of citizens escaping brutality and enslavement by utterly corrupt and barbarian Communist dictators, including those Commie China's puppets running Vietnamese Commie regime, still ongoing, evidenced by 39 dead Vietnamese immigrants found in UK container truck on the news, and that's only what's been reported, as the real figure is much higher.

I don't normally comment. But this is an amazing documentary. The graphics and maps and computer renderings of The Villages are unreal.
Vietnamese people have a profound understanding of the pain and loss wrought by war. Over nearly 1000 years, they endured Chinese domination, followed by a century of conflict against the French and Americans, as well as the 1979 border war with China.
While documentary films accurately depict aspects of Vietnam's history, but it is only a small part of Vietnam's history.
War, in its wake, leaves only devastation and anguish for all parties involved. That's why, in times of peace, Vietnam always wanted reconciliation and goodwill with all countries in the world.
Hope for peace in the world🤝
THEY are LOOSERS,,, NO LIBERTY NOW,, fool,,,
The current Vietnamese Commie is a puppet regime installed by Commie China. That's why it often brutally suppressed any anti-China protests in Vietnam, and only strategically let these protests proceed on occasions to remind Commie China that it controlled the Vietnam population for its master. All true.

Morrison took his daughter Emily, then one year of age, to the Pentagon, and either set her down or handed her off to someone in the crowd before setting himself ablaze. He died within two minutes of leaving in an ambulance for Fort Myer.[9]
Morrison's reasons for taking Emily are not entirely known. However, Morrison's wife Anne later recalled, "Whether he thought of it that way or not, I think having Emily with him was a final and great comfort to Norman... [S]he was a powerful symbol of the children we were killing with our bombs and napalm - who didn't have parents to hold them in their arms."[10]
In a letter he mailed to Welsh, Morrison reassured her of the faith in his act. "Know that I love thee ... but I must go to help the children of the priest's village". McNamara described Morrison's death as "a tragedy not only for his family but also for me and the country. It was an outcry against the killing that was destroying the lives of so many Vietnamese and American youth." He was survived by Anne Welsh and three children, Ben (who died of cancer in 1976), Christina and Emily.😢
It is an additional tradedgy that America did not acknowledge the reason for the exit of the French. That it was that it was not a winnable war!

The USA was obsessed with the domino theory and thought that if Vietnam was Communist after the French left then other countries would follow including possibly India, Australia and New Zealand.
As a result they supported a corrupt unpopular government the people didn’t want. A government that mistreated non Catholics, the poor and the peasants.
The USA knew how bad the South’s government was but accepted it because it was anti communist.
French are just loosers on any war
That is what you get when voting Democrat .. The party that started most US wars.
I'm Gen X but my father fought in Vietnam and me growing up he never spoke a word about it.
He spent the rest of his life as a working , reserved , quiet alcoholic that rarely would smile or chuckle. I believe this was caused by his time in the war and how he lived with it until passing away at age 59.

An agricultural chemical company based in New Plymouth North Island of New Zealand on the west coast of New Zealand produced Agent Orange for the US Government. The company also dumped lots of 44 gallon drums of the chemical in and around New Plymouth. The family that owned that company are totally responsible for the environmental impact on Vietnam but also the birth of vietnamese children without arms legs and so on. Crimes of humanity of the worst kind. I have been to Vietnam and witnessed myself the devastation of the environment where Agent Orange was dropped nothing grows there anymore. I have seen adults without limbs and young children that are still affected by Agent Orange.
Genocide and crimes against humanity were committed and all protagonist including politicians, commanders and soldiers are all responsible for all the crimes committed individually.

@@KAMNA_Muriuki No, this is mostly on the leaders. Soldiers were often there against their will and had no idea what they are dropping. They most likely knew: "It makes the streets clear from the jungle so we dont get ambushed" and thats it. Probably not even the militaries knew from the beginning. Most likely the company knew it all and maybe SOME officials in the US. But it takes time and the companies are surely not waving around how insanely toxic their product is. Rather the opposite - "Yes Mr- President, its so safe, infants can eat it, no problem"

As a teenager in the 60s and 70s in Vancouver 🇨🇦, I watched the Vietnam War on the 6:00 news every night. It was quite graphic and disturbing seeing wounded soldiers. They always finished with a body count that was usually 10 to 1 in favor of the US. TV news ever since has been heavily censored.
that was propaganda...I spoke to an old soldier, he said the Vietnamese had tunnels, and would clear their men prior to the smoke clearing, so they couldn't count the men, the old man, may he rest in peace, told me, he never got close to anyone because they lost so many men
I think Americans had to start this war !
@@almarch-jw9lk Actually the communist North Vietnam started the war.
Mình là người việt nam bản tin lúc nào củng nói cộng sản ngu dốt không có vũ khí mỹ qua đánh thì 1 người mỹ đỗi 10 người cộng sản😂 hãy hỏi những người lính khi đánh ở việt nam họ có sợ hay họ lun thắng cộng sản😂 nhiều người nói cộng sản tuyên truyền trong khi đó mỹ mới là người tuyên truyền😂😂
@almarch-jw9lk This morning, I discovered an interesting statistic, “America Has Been At War 93% of the Time - 222 Out of 239 Years - Since 1776“, i.e. the U.S. has only been at peace for less than 20 years total since its birth. I wanted to check, get a better understanding and look at other countries in the world.Mar 19, 2017

Chất độc dioxin nó ảnh hưởng khủng khiếp kéo dài nhiều thế hệ sau đó. Những đứa trẻ sinh ra không được lành lặn và quái dị. Điều này đã ảnh hưởng rất nhiều cho thế hệ kế cận sau chiến tranh của dân tộc Việt Nam.
that iis true
"That part of war is missing in this valuable documentary." - Propaganda is more like it, when facts are presented, shall we say, in the most biased ways. A couple of examples:
3:45 "In the South, some residents refused the alliance with the Americans..." Those "residents" were the VCs, from the North VNmese army, infiltrating the South countryside and coerced the farmers, peasants into their ranks. Otherwise the general population LOVED "the alliance with the Americans" who helped them kick VCs butts...
43:00 Those thousands of bodies are not "lying somewhere", they had been eviscerated to bits and pieces during battles "40 yrs ago" and here comes the "archeologist" and his team trying to recover some (3 "bodies" in this one location) - what a farce. The VNmese get paid handsomely for sifting through all that layers of mud, no wonder the GI vets feel so welcome. Win win situation on both sides, for sure.
I served as a US Marine (5 Jan 1969-13 Aug 1970)--Through the years I have learned and taken a completely different perspective than what was presented to us back in that era. The prevailing ideology of that period is what it is and cannot be changed. I regret that so many lives on both sides were negatively affected, not only those who died, but those who were physically maimed and mentally traumatized for life. I feel as much anguish for those we fought against as I do for those who fought with us and have the same respect for all.
US 🇺🇸 MOTHER OF ALL WARS AND TRADE SANCTIONS
@@seangauntroll
"I feel as much anguish for those we fought against...and have the same respect," If you meant the VCs then do some research/reading before feeling "anguish" on their behalf. They were the invaders, North VN against South VN, it's war crimes no 1. Taking into account that VNmese on both sides were/are of the same race, (the Viet race) that's internal- genocide (or fratricide, killing one's own brother), ie war crimes no 2. The fact that the North finally won the war doesn't exculpate them of their crimes. Criminals deserve condemnation, not respect.

As long as Vietnam is still ruled by the oppressive and exploitive Communist regime, her potential remains greatly diminished. For any 1% that wants to stay, 99% of the population wants to get out, and many have risked their lives doing just that (for example, 39 doomed lives found in UK container truck recently on the news, and that's only what's been reported), unfortunately. Yet another shocking and also recent example is that during the Covid pandemic when almost all countries assisted their citizens with financial aids in one form or another, the corrupt and murderous Vietnamese Commie regime saw it just as another opportunity not to help but to exploit its ruled citizens even more, essentially making money over the corpses of its citizens by presumably killing at least 30-50K of them, due to grossly misdiagnoses and being thrown into barbwired unhygenic living quarters for isolation, so that they had to sleep on concrete floor, even next to filled trashcans, with inadequate toilet, food, water, or medicine, like animals (searching hard enough, one is able to see shocking video clips on Facebook though the regime tried hard to crack down the leaks by Vietnamese citizen journalists), with the fake nostril Covid test kits, mislabeled as approved by World Health Organization (WHO) in Việt Á scandal, colluded by at least 4 different government agencies (Y Tế , Khoa Học, Công Nghệ, Quân y) and the top Politburo members, including Nguyễn Phú Trọng, Phạm Minh Chính, Nguyễn Xuân Phúc. Murderous Vietnamese Commie regime even had a thug murdered Christian pastor Giuse Trần Ngọc Thanh, like it has done with many other pastors across the nation. There is a reason why the current Commie Vietnam ranks at the bottom of the world in freedom of speech, (true) freedom of religion, and freedom of the press, barely above Commie China and Commie North Korea. There is no true freedom of religion in Commie Vietnam, as this corrupt Vietnamese Commie regime only authorized the fake organizations headed by Commie monks, many of whom were Commie Party officials, and those religious organizations not approved to be infiltrated by them or headed by their Commie agents are accused of malicious and nonexistent crimes and banned, with innocent religious leaders arrested and jailed, as in the recent case with Thiền Am Bên Bờ Vũ Trụ, a harmless Buddhist meditation monastery, for simply having many followers (hence, more influences that the regime fears it can't control) than the Commie Party's officially approved ones. Similarly, its passport ranks at the bottom, 89th out of 111 countries for a reason, barely above North Korea 104th rank. even below many African nations. For comparison, South Korea is at 2nd rank. That's what Republic of South Vietnam would have likely been ranked among at least the top 10 had it not been invaded and occupied by the North Vietnamese Commie terrorists, aided by Commie Soviet and Commie China. Search "cuop dat dan" (meaning "land-robbing of citizens") to see millions of footages across the country from North to South, spanning for decades, dated back to Ho Chi Minh's bloody land reform 1953-1956 that killed nearly 1 million North Vietnamese in only 4 years, or 250K people brutally slaughtered in torturous painful deaths (like being shot, stabbed, mutilated while being alive, or heads being plowed over by water buffaloes while bodies being buried underground) each year on average to rob their lands and homes. Even today, if the rightful owners refuse to have their homes or lands robbed, the ruthless Vietnamese Commie terrorist regime simply jail or massacre them, have tractors run over their bodies or openly assassinate them in their own homes. When it comes to robbing, these barbarian Vietnamese Commie bandits even prey on each other, just as the recent case with then 84-year-old Mr. Lê Đình Kình, a 55-year-Commie Party veteran from Dong Tam, near Hanoi, that got shot dead at 3am in his own home by the Vietnamese Commie terrorist regime. When his wife Mrs. Dư Thị Thành refused to lie about the incident as ordered, the Vietnamese Commie terrorist police brutally tortured her (see more details from "dandongtam" on Facebook). The corrupt Vietnamese Commie government officials routinely dine on lavish gold-plated Salt Bae steak $100K per meal with blood money not just from taxpayers but also from robbed-lands and robbed homes recently drew international condemnations, while many Vietnamese citizens, including elderlies in their 60's and 70's as well as kids as young as 6's to 16's selling lottery tickets on the streets to survive on $2-3 per day. Even Phạm Nhật Vượng the richest man in Vietnam (via his VinGroup) made the bulk of his wealth mainly by colluding with the barbarian Vietnamese Commie regime in selling their robbed-lands from Vietnamese citizens. Travelers to Vietnam in her current form (not at all like this before the Communists took over) should keep this in mind. Behind the beauty of the land and smiling faces at popular tourist destinations, there are a lot of darkness and tears, bloods, sweats, sorrow, horror, and sufferings all over the country.

Các bạn nghĩ hai đại chiến thế giới 1 và đại chiến thế giới 2 tàn khốc nhất lịch sử ư, cũng đúng nhưng chả là gì so với chiến tranh việt nam. Trong Thế chiến 2, số lượng bom rơi xuống Việt Nam là lớn nhất trong lịch sử quân sự, với ước tính khoảng 6,2 triệu tấn bom, giờ hãy Lấy số liệu lượng bom thế chiến 1 và thế chiến 2 cộng lại rồi so sánh với lượng bom được sử dụng ở Việt Nam
Thế chiến 1: Ước tính khoảng 1,4 triệu tấn bom đã được sử dụng trên các chiến trường trên toàn cầu.
Thế chiến 2: Ước tính khoảng 2,7 triệu tấn bom đã được sử dụng trên các chiến trường trên toàn cầu.
Khi cộng lại, tổng số bom sử dụng
trong cả hai Thế chiến là khoảng 4,1 triệu tấn. So với tổng số bom rơi xuống Việt Nam trong (khoảng 6,2 triệu tấn), ta thấy rằng lượng bom được sử dụng ở Việt Nam nhiều hơn 2,1 triệu tấn so với tổng số bom được sử dụng trong cả hai Thế chiến. Điều này cho thấy mức độ tàn phá khủng khiếp của chiến tranh Việt Nam.
Nhìn lại lịch sử, chúng ta không thể không khẳng định rằng dân tộc Việt Nam là một trong những dân tộc hùng cường nhất trên thế giới, với tinh thần kiên định và ý chí mạnh mẽ, là nguồn động viên và cảm hứng không ngừng cho thế hệ sau. là tấm gương của các nước thuộc địa noi theo
Trong đêm tối của cuộc chiến tranh, dân tộc Việt Nam đã bước qua những thử thách với tinh thần hùng cường và sự kiên định không lường trước. Bằng lòng dũng cảm và lòng yêu nước sâu sắc, họ đã chống lại sức mạnh vũ trang của các đế quốc lớn và vượt qua những thảm họa không kể. Lịch sử đã chứng minh rằng, dưới áp lực của bom đạn và cuộc chiến, dân tộc Việt Nam vẫn tỏ ra kiên định và không bao giờ từ bỏ niềm tin vào tự do và độc lập của mình.giữ vững trọn vẹn non sông
Với lòng dũng cảm và sự hy sinh không biên giới, họ đã bảo vệ và giữ vững bản tính dân tộc, với niềm tự hào và lòng yêu nước bất diệt. Dân tộc Việt Nam không chỉ là những người chiến đấu trong chiến trường, mà còn là những người xây dựng lại đất nước sau chiến tranh, với lòng quyết tâm và sức mạnh tinh thần không ngừng.
United States dropped 7,500,000 tons of bombs on SE Asia. Of that we dropped 2,000,000 tons on Laos. North and South of Vietnam received the rest, a huge amount of bombs.
Robert McNamara adopted "statistical principles" of war, and Harvard Business School managment techniques instead of leadership. The US Army was in a state of mutiny by 1971.
Vietnamese people worked very hard to toss out Americans. One in four young men who left North Vietnam through jungle trails died on the trip south. Some had tattoos that said "Born in the North to die in the South".
The Vietnamese people had an ally - the common American person. By 1967 we were fed up with what we were doing in Vietnam. A lot of Americans did not understand what we were doing in Vietnam.
Lyndon Johnson lost the 1968 Democratic Party primary to Eugene McCarthy in New Hampshire. Peace Protesters helped McCarthy to win. Johnson decided not to run for President.
The US bombings of 1972 were an attempt to force concessions on behalf of the Republic of Vietnam. By 1973 the US was tired, disgusted and angry.

JW was a SF soldier in Vietnam Green Beret !!!!!!
I grew up facing this war, watching the news daily, the Government telling us we lost 50 men today but we killed 400 VC…day after day, year after year. I began thinking “how many do they have?” Finally, facing the draft to be in a war, not wanting to be the last guy KIA, I enlisted in the USAF. I saw and experienced the war without seeing combat…as the American people turned on the uniform, the only thing they could disdain…and they did. The looks of hatred, being accused of being “baby killers etc”, spoken softly so we alone could hear them. I wore the uniform only on base, wearing a cap to hide my GI haircut. 20 years later at a training session for work, Viet Nam vets were asked to stand and were welcomed home and thanked. I cried. My heart aches when I think about the devastation.
We had a whole nation to fight at that time
I have a huge respect and love for the Vietnamese people!
They destroyed and poisoned a land during the war and now they come back to find their dead and the continue destroying... let them rest in peace and help people of Vietnam clean this land from your bombs and poisons!

It is estimated that South Vietnam lost between 200,000 and 250,000 fighters. The Viet Cong lost around 1.1 million combatants. Around 2 million civilians were killed in the territories of North and South Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. It is suspected that over 1.2 million of these deaths were murders.
After Tet offensive, Phoenix campaign of CIA and south Vietnam captured and killed about 20 000 people who were suspected of being a communist and sympathetic to communism.

I am from the country of Algeria 🇩🇿 North Africa We salute and appreciate the resistant and brave Vietnamese people Our circumstances are similar My country Algeria faced the French occupation 🇲🇫 The French attacked us in the year 1830 and occupied our country in 130 A year until 1962 when the barbaric occupation withdrew They killed many of my people about 6 million Algerian people and they conducted nuclear tests in the Algerian desert where many Algerians were afflicted with cancer and deformities But the Algerian people despite the few weapons they possessed resisted the French bravely and killed many of their soldiers just as happened in Vietnam
It’s always the French…
@@DinoMan_6 có thể bạn không biết nhưng phần lớn thu nhập của nước pháp đến từ đóng góp của các nước thuộc địa , đến tận bây giờ vẫn là như vậy dù cho nhiều nước bắc phi đã được độc lập. cái gọi là chính quyền dân chủ ở đó do pháp bí mật cài người và kí điều lệ cho phép họ độc lập nhưng phải bán tài nguyên và cống nạp tài sản hàng năm cho nước pháp . đó cũng là lí do pháp luôn hỗ trợ ukraine đánh Nga vì nước Nga hỗ trợ lật đổ chính phủ do pháp lập nên ở các nước thuộc địa bắc phi. các bạn có thể tìm hiểu về những nhà chính trị đó giàu có muôn đời nhưng người dân thì nghèo đói
great documentary continued success to the great Vietnamese people.
