I am a retired Marine and knew Jack through our 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines Association. This interview was very well done and I am proud to have known Jack and all the Marines / Navy corpsmen from 2/4 I met in Vietnam and subsequently over the years. Jack died of cancer some years ago and he is truly missed.
Brooks I interviewed Jack over 15 years ago. Please tell me more of his passing. God bless you!! WEBSITE: larrycappetto.com
It's a miracle he came out of Dai Do physically unscathed. God Bless you Jack. RIP~Semper Fidelis
When brave Marines cry ...I cry with them.. Thank you for your service Jack.
Count me in too...
As a member of this soldier’s generation, Welcome Home. From a mom of a soldier. A daughter of a father who served in Nam. The wife of a marine who served in Nam. Welcome Home.
YEAH DEBORAH!!! Thank you for watching some of my stories.
I honor you for that comment.
Deborah thank you for giving so much.
Vietnam left battle scars on the heart and soul of our brave Vets. Jack we hurt with you and appreciate your sacrifice. Much respect. Welcome Home😘🇺🇸 Larry, thank you for giving us an opportunity to hear from our long forgotten Vietnam Vets.
Blessings Shelia!!!
Thank you for all you do Larry .❤ Jack thank for your service & sacrifice sir . ❤
Glad you made it home Jack, hope you are well.
So many men survived with the scars of battle, mentally and physically. We owe them thanks and respect. For the soldiers that fought and the ones in a support position. They were all trained to fight but the ones that fought were well supported by the people in the rear. Devil Dogs are the real McCoy and once a Marine always a Marine. Thank you for the sacrifice you made for our country Jack.
Thank you Kirby!!
Thank you Jack, welcome home 🙏
Thank you for your service to our country. A fellow Vietnam Veteran I Corp. Phu Bai/Hue/Khe Sanh 1967-1969
Thank You Jack for your service!! You were and are a HERO. It was and is horrific, and a tragedy that so often a minority of the American people that spew negativity get the publicity. You and all Vietnam Vets should have been welcomed home with respect, dignity and appreciation for your courage and service. Thank You again for your service . You are very much appreciated!!
Thank you for your service, I'm from the UK but have family in/from the USA so i almost feel American & love my brother's over the pond. X
GOD Bless this Man...Helicopter Squadron USAF; Sergeant 1968 - 69; it never leaves you.
My eyes got a little watery and found out how goose bumps feel, when he saluted.
All my condolences to Jack's family as to his passing. He comes across as a good man.
Thank you for your comment and for watching my story. I hope you are subscribed to my channel. Please feel free to share these videos. God bless you!! WEBSITE: larrycappetto.com

I agree John. Thanks for watching. I invite you to check out my new radio station. Share it with a student and truck driver: Voices of History Radio® (KVOH) larrycappetto.com
Thank you Jack for your story and service!!
Wow, heavenly thank you, brave Marine. How very heart wrenching to hear him describe the loss of his buddy George.
Wow. The emotions he had spread to me. God bless him. I lost an uncl I was never able to meet in Vietnam. I was named after him and was always told what a hero and brave man he was. I had big footsteps to fill. Thank Vietnam vets for all you did for freedom !!!!!
My cousin James E McMahon served in that same unit, 2/4 Marines, 3rd Marine Division--Quang Tri Providence, northern I Corp. KIA 6/22-69. Thank you to the two Marines that tried to save him that day, he was carrying the Radio, one Marine was shot, got the Silver Star for Bravery trying to save my Cousin. Hotel Company 2nd Platoon. Rest IN Peace James and now Jack.
Thank you so very much Mr Cappetto for all your hard work getting the stories of these brave men for everyone to hear. May God bless you abundantly

Love the channel both my uncles served in nam my grandma in ww2 I love hearing these hero’s stories god bless all our veterans
THANK YOU NICK!!!
Well done Larry & thankyou Jack! I was never in the military but, am from the same era as these men. I find it difficult with the comments; whatever superlatives I use apply to them all. It is impressive the level of modesty these blokes all share.
Bill, thank you for watching from Australia. You might be the number one viewer on this channel from overseas. God bless you!!! Hope you are subscribed!!
Thank you for your service. God Bless!
Blessings my friend!!!
2bn 4th Marines. Magnificent Bastards. My father was there. Called in F4 strikes... many a memory of him sleeping, and calling out "Ball-bearing; ball-bearing.." with dopings. He may have left Nam. Nam never left him. Best of the best; and the best father i could have asked for. Semper Fi.
I love listening to these interviews. These men will be gone soon. We should never forget what they went through.
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING MY STORIES!!
Semper Fi, Jack. I love you.
We owe this man and many more a debt that we can never pay. When watching these videos you can only imagine what they went through.
Thank you for watching my interview Charmaine. I hope you have found some of the others stories I have recorded over the years. God bless you!!
Welcome home brave Marine. I stand and cheer for all those veterans who sacrificed for our freedom. I will never forget! Thank you, thank you!
Jack, I lost 3 friends that were Marines. One in Khe Sanh. All KIA 1968. 1 still MIA, 3 came home.😔
Sheila, let's honor your friends. Please contact me via my website. Thank you!!
I live in the flight path of the helicopters from my local hospital. I still react to the sounds of one flying over. I pray for whoever they are helping and for the crew. USARV Special Troops as a draftee 1968-1969. I am on disability for exposure to Agent Orange. I would do it again if asked and if able.
God bless you Ronald!!
Thank You for Sharing 👍!!! Priceless and the real history of our great nation's men!!!😀🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
After watching your videos I have a new profound respect for Vietnam War veteran's. Everytime I see one, I go way out of my way to thank them, tell them welcome home and Thank you!! I love the Vietnam series. Thank you for finding these brave Vets and thank you vets for mustering up the strength and courage to share your traumatizing experience. Thank you for your service's
Great comment. Thank you for your kind words. I invite you to check out my new radio station - Voices of History Radio® (KVOH) larrycappetto.com
I was a Marine with Mike company 3/1 in 1969 and enjoy all these interviews
Got a kick out of one of the interviews talk a bout Arizona territory always getting in a gun fight there and called it Dodge City- go noi island
A year later in ‘69 we called it the same thing for the same reason
God Bless you for all that you have been through in the Nam. Welcome Home Marine!!!!
I too was with 2nd Bn 4th Marines in 1966, Golf Company. I joined the Battalion in Chueli, Hill 69, moved to Danang and Dong Ha by April. Spending the rest of my tour in Phubie, Camp J.R. Carroll, Camlo, the “D” and the Rock Pile, until I rotated out in December. So as it goes we walked through much of the same mud. Glad you made it back to the world, just like you I lost friends too.

Larry Another heartfelt testimony from a Humble War Hero of epic proportions. Want to say to Jack. I was a 11 year old kid when you served and sacrificed.

Thank you for your kind words. We are about the same age. An act of remembrance is an act of HONOR!! Thank you for watching and sharing these stories.
THANK YOU jACK! WELCOME HOME!!! Hurts me deeply when I hear/read/witness the USA being marginalized and when Freedom is taken for granted.
Mr. Petrowsky I love The Marines. USA! I love our Freedom. Thank you Sir.
Such a phenomenal endeavor Mr. Capetto it must have been to capture the raw emotion and telling of what it means to a person, a soldier in time of battle and war. Jack's profoundly human experience was relayed so respectfully and touching. The salute and the end, and the commentary that preceeded was beautifully executed. Thank you for sharing.

I delivered in papers for the New Haven Journal Currier, goin thru grade school . . . in the 60's. My visual either was thru watching Walter Cronkite, watching the evening news, or, reviewing my paper each day -.Front Page, or reviewing casualty count .. . . on the second page. I was too young, to factually realize to this morass, daily negative news . . . 💀🇺🇸
Thank - you , L. R. C. ! * [ Has J. P. '' Reunited '' with the 2 /4 in . . .St. Peter's Division , Pearly Gates ] ? ?
Thank - you in advance !
Great series you have maintained , kudos to you & all involved !
🎯 - Good health to you all .
Thank you brother Ray!!!
Good interview. I really appreciate the way he defined freedom. I want anyone who reads this though to ask yourself; if all these wars we've fought are for freedom then why after each one we are less fee then before we went.
Side note; I'm not some liberal douchebag hippie hipster. I joined the army in the middle of a nasty war that was said to be for our freedom.
