- We take a tour of the War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City while visiting District 1. The history of the Vietnam War, from a Vietnamese prospective, is showcased in this 3 floor building in central Ho Chi Minh City mainly through photographs and video with some military equipment throughout the museum. Several vehicles and aircraft our located in the courtyard of the museum.
A must visit if in Ho Chi Minh City!

Thank you. Your video is so good. I am Vietnamese. I wish no more war on the Earth 🙏. Love peace!
Thank you very much!
We enjoyed our time in Vietnam. It's a very beautiful country and we met some very nice people as we travelled through. We wish for the same!
I remember going to this museum as a part of our curriculum at university here in Vietnam, and I was shocked and traumatized even though I've learned all about the war through history class.
As a Canadian, the Vietnam war (American War) wasn't taught in school, but I knew a lot about it. I've wanted to go to Vietnam for a long time. The museum choked me up several times. Thanks for watching and commenting. Vietnam is a beautiful country.
Went there in 2019 and was pretty impressed with that place!!! A must to visit for sure.
Yes, worth a visit for sure! Thanks for watching!
I was 8 in 1969 when my nineteen year old cousin was killed by a mortar. He was in country for 3 weeks and was unloading supplies when he died. He came from a poor family and was drafted. He was not a Barbarian. And I loved him and still to this day. Sorry, but this one hit me hard.
Sorry to hear about your cousin Dean. Thanks for sharing. I choked up several times while visiting and really was at a lost for words.
Us is an evil country. They drop bombs without good reasons and not responsible. how many people were killed by us army?
Although I'm a bit of a pacifist I still find war history interesting. Mostly to try to have a better understanding from both sides of the table away from the media's biased viewpoints. Great video.
For sure Aaron. Amateur history buff myself.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciated!
Thế kỹ 20 ..., người dân Việt Nam đã bảo vệ thành công tự do hạnh phúc và môi trường sống nhân loài nơi ấy.., hy vọng vọng sang thế kỹ 21 đẩy nhanh phát triển các giá trị đó có khoa học hơn...
We made a mistake by escalating the war, mostly by Lyndon Baines Johnson a war criminal. Looking back in hindsight I think 🤔 the USA 🇺🇸 wanted capitalism but they should have allowed Vietnam 🇻🇳 and their citizens the right to decide themselves. There was a lot of sick leaders back then such as Westmoreland who helped escalate the war. I have met many Vietnamese people who are peaceful people who never wanted war.
I seen your comment and wanted to translate it, then got busy and forgot. I apologize.
Vietnam was a beautiful country. It far exceeded our expectations. I say that in several of the videos.
I have wanted to visit the country for 30+ years because of the Vietnam (American) War. War is ALWAYS a horrible thing. Innocent people suffer.
Now on a different note... The food and coffee was amazing, the best we have had ANYWHERE!
The Vietnamese people were welcoming and very friendly. To many examples to cover. We met some really nice people. There were people who spoke no English but we sat and used the translator. Amazing experience.
Thank you Google Translate for making those interactions happen. They were unforgettable and I will remember those people for the rest of my life.
It always amazes me that where people have suffered the most, they are always the nicest, friendliest, and most compassionate. I wish nothing but the best for Vietnam's people and we will definitely return.
To be there during Tet... again, amazing.
Thanks for commenting starslight100!
Looking around today... I fear lessons were not learned.
I always say, and think it's correct. It's not the people, it's the governments.
Thanks for the comment KJJ782!

Điều đó chứng tỏ trước đây trong thế kỹ 20 , chính phủ Mỹ đã phạm sai lầm lớn nhất về quân sự gây chiến đất nước Việt nam thay vì cùng nhau hợp tác phát triển vì tương lai sớm hơn.
One of questions that Robert Mcnamara asked PAV's general named Võ Nguyên Giáp what was it exactly happened at Tonkin? His answer shocked me that "There was NOTHING from aside of North Vietnam at that time"
Informative video 👍
Thanks for watching and commenting.

This was a hard video for me... I choked up several times.
Thank you 👍
and Thank you for watching and commenting.
Another great video Andrew. The war vehicles looked in good order. What the US did with Agent Orange to get rid of some of the trees etc had massive underlying consequences for the local people with birth defects etc. I don't think it was the US's finest hour!
Yes the vehicles were in good shape. I assume they are maintained well and was surprised they had no rust, unlike a lot of other metal things we have seen. Agreed, Agent Orange created huge problems for the Vietnamese people. The Vietnam (American) war was definetly not a good moment in US history. Another reason I am glad to be a Canadian. Canadians have a pretty good reputation around the world, for the most part.
@@andrewabroad50 yes Canadians sure do. I'm Australian and I think we have the same also. Canadians and Australians are very similar.
Say hi Lindsay.
I agree! 👍
Actually in Vung Tau there's a memorial site of the Australian fighting in the Vietnam War also. The place is pretty well kept by the locals as well. I dont think there's any American site like that in VN.

It was an experience I won’t forget.
It was an unforgettable experience!
from what I understand that museum used to be the 3rd Field Hospital.. thats where i served. 3rd Field Hospital OR in Saigon 1972.
Thanks for the watch and comment Olehippy. I'll have to do a quick search about that. It did have a layout that would make sense for a hospital. Have you been back?
@@andrewabroad50 I have NOT.... but it would be a blast to make a trip back to VietNam.... its changed big time since I was there.. I've got several friends here in America, that are Vietnamese. One flew helicopters for the ARVN's... and one was a soldier....
if you pay attention to every pictures detail.. especially the one look gruesome,then you will have a goosebumps..but you seem uncomfortable to speak about it..well its a fact ! i would love to pay a visit again and again..
It is hard for me to talk about it! CZcams guidelines make it difficult also. Do you want me to cry on the camera? If you watch closely you can tell I'm pretty choked up. I had to edit and leave out a lot so CZcams will allow it.
I appreciate your comment and hope you understand my position... if you only knew what was being said off camera and what was edited out.
I look forward to your video of the museum and the conflict. I promise I will watch it.
@@andrewabroad50 I used to be a HCM city tour guide for first time foreigners and War Museum was the first destination way back when it’s not this organized. Been there to see a lot and a lot of foreigners in trying so hard to hold their tears. So, I feel you. No need to explain yourself that hard, I understand.

This war was a terrible experience for both sides, both fought valiently for what they believed was a just cause. Rest in peace to all of them and may this museum be their memory.
I agree. Very brutal time. The museum was an unforgettable experience.
I see many familiar pieces of military hardware. I have flown on the CH 47 helicopter and have also received training on the maintenance of that helicopter. I was stationed at Con Thein cam lo and Quang Tri military bases. While T Con Thein I remember seeing one of the very large Allis Chalmers dozens on the north end of the base that had been destroyed during one of the many battles with the communist north Vietnamese. I'm sure the communist have their own propaganda version of the events. Our only reason for being is South Vietnam was to assist our ally. Another fact about the war LBJ micro managed the bombing of the war in the north Vietnam. Had the bombing been properly conducted the bombing should have been done as was the bombing that was done during world War two in Germany and Japan. Having said that the war should have been over in six months. When north Vietnam stopped the aggression on south Vietnam and only then should the massive bombing of north Vietnam been stopped. That is what should have happened. Instead LBJ picked targets like bridges and never really destroyed the true military targets. That is the fact in this matter.
I really liked your comment. Always like to hear first hand accounts.
@andrewabroad50 I remember when LBJ went on television claiming that one of our navy ships had been attacked in the gulf of Tonkin. It was later determined that was a made up story. After I had been drafted into the military and was in the class room training portion of this training I remember the training also including speeches that LBJ had made previously about why we were in South Vietnam supporting our ally.
The War would have been stopped in one day if you give LBJ a riffle and fight in the Vietnamese forrest.

That part of the video and museum, got to us the most. That was the part about agent orange and the effects on the population... mainly the children.
Had a hard time in this part of the museum... HORRIBLE time in history!
I agree agent orange was horrible and what it did to the citizens and the Vietnamese families. It was wrong of them to use those chemicals. Another awful decision by LBJ and General Westmoreland
If you have wondered why Americans lost the war in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, you don't need to go far to find out. The innocent people who suffered the most. They joined North Vietnamese, Khmer Rouge and Laosian communist party to fight the Americans. They won at the end due to barbarian acts of the American military in those countries.
I would agree that the war for hearts and minds did not go well. As I mentioned in the video, in these types of wars... it's the civilians that suffer most and as a fan of Machiavelli... I sure understand...
No American destroyer was ever sunk in the Gulf of Tonkin... c'mon pacifist Canuck.
Thanks for the watch, comment, and perspective.
