One of the best 'Vietnam Songs' was by Kenny Rogers, called: "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town". It was released in January of 1969, 5 months before I was sent over. A song that hit home for many of the young soldiers who came home disabled, with a young wife or girlfriend waiting for them.
I remember that song...I was 13 years old. I also remember many of the older boys in my neighborhood going off to fight that war... Some did not return. Sad, very sad.
Damn, must've been hard times. Im a 14 yo brazilian, but I admire de courage in every soldier from any country. It takes balls to kill and die for almost nothing.
Took a second to listen to that song, first time hearing it. Man its a good song, you can really hear the sorrow coming from his lips. Thank you for your service and i hope you are well

Huge thanks to US for WWI & WWII (eventually). I would have rather more respect for US military these days, had they fought in Russia or China, instead of always invading tiddly little third-world countries. Like those playground bullies who only ever pick on the junior kids.
Their 130mm guns on the DMZ could fire further and faster and were very accurate compared to our 105’s and the Army 175’s at Camp Carroll. When the transition from the M14 happened they basically gave our soldiers and Marines single shot muzzle loaders with the early M16. The cartridges would get stuck in the chamber after one or two rounds. Then you needed a cleaning rod to punch it out from the barrel. They didn’t have enough cleaning kits so they were issued to groups of two or three to share.

The Vietnam War was so pointless X years later Vietnam is one of the US's closest allies in the region. Vietnam is a fking socialist democracy now. Allows private businesses, some freedom of religion, has a strong economy, open to tourists And Communism was relegated to just a bunch of underfunded rebel/bandit cells fighting for nothing But you can say that the war focused all the efforts for Communism support on Nam thus turning the others broke. Still. What a pointless war. Amazing soundtrack though
The Vietnam War was about Rubber resources controlled my the French multi national cooperation Michilan Tire... that's why the French were fighting them first
You think being ruled by Communist Party is good? Then you know nothing of Communism. They do not allow "fledgling democracy" to exist. The reason US, S Korea, and Australia was in Vietnam War was to stop the spread of Communism. Look up the "Dominoe Theory." Then read up on the horror of Communism, if you have access to actual history.
@@willieboy3011 Looks like you never read up on how the Domino Theory was false. Sure, Communism had to be stopped...but political powers in the U.S. that wanted to maintain their own power had every reason to hype the Communist threat as worse than it was. Other than nukes, the Soviets weren't anywhere near able to maintain an economic competition with the U.S...
@@rikk319 The threat of Communism was real from the moment the Bolsheviks took over USSR, which became 1/6th of the earth's land surface. By the end of WWII in 1945 Communists enslaved Yugoslavia, Hungary, Albania, East Germany, Romania, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria, and Poland. 1949 Communists gained control in China. 1950 North Korea invaded South Korea and the war waged unit 1953. 1959 Castro took Cuba and by 1965 Communists were in control. By 1955 Laos, Cambodia, and South Vietnam all invaded by Communists. I think the treat of Communists taking over was quite real.

@133 charlie OORAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!
Nah, I am from 1971.
I always listen to this song when i play Rising Storm 2 : Vietnam. That game is such a PTSD simulator
It's amazing paranoid is 50 year's old
Imagine you were born in Vietnamese farmer’s family and your life was just a farm and fun. Until the day you will meet the napalm boys.
I prefer to think that all the civilians we killed were total assholes, because its slightly better than the alternative.
@@WhatEvenIsAGoodName So your friends dead for what??
@@Hierggguysk7 What?
Have ever heard families cut, stabbed or exploded by grenades because they refuse to follow communism? I guess you never know.
@@thanhtruong946 I am from eastern gulag I know that shit very well. It still has nothing to do with an excuse for killing civilians by US army.
It was tough out there, some made it to the world. In some cases Vietnam killed the man but not the soldier, in the worst of cases it killed the soldier and the man
Sometimes the latter is better.

Some how the guitar work lyrics to this song matches this and real modern problems!🤔

I love how the guy points the middle finge while sleeping lol
When you play this and the trees start headbanging
Respect to veterans....
My dad was there. He was never the same.
Amen
Sorry to say that he probably won't be again
@@lloydratliff2246 He died about 15 years ago drinking his ptsd away.
@@subicstationditosailor4053 I lm so sorry to hear this. We deserved better. I know exactly what he was going through, I still have bad nightmares. God, is the only reason I'm here today. God bless you and your family remember that he loves you.
Isso sim é música de verdade e um salve para os veteranos do Vietinã que lutaram pela sua Pátria e deram seu sangue pelo país.
Usually it's CCR for a Vietnam War soundtrack but this time it's something different and fresh
Terrible War n conditions. My late father did 2 tours in Nam with MACV n 5th Inf. Mech. on the DMZ.
Came for the tune,stayed for the footage!
I'm getting paranoid! 🔥
The clips are still better quality than banks

Kicking some ass in this one ☝️ Ozzy & this vid go hand in hand. Nice work!
“This is nam baby!”-woods
Music fits the video 100%

"you pissed off the wrong helicopter squadron"
RESPECT OF BOUTH SIDE!!.
"Es facil desear la Guerra para aquellos que no la han vivido"
Una guerra a la cual Estados Unidos no debió involucrarse ....
Pero respeto y admiro mucho a los veteranos de esta guerra.
@@Ghp187 era por un bien era USA y Vietnam del sur contra los comunistas de Vietnam del norte que eran apoyados eso por la URSS
@@jackal8331 Pues si , pero porque gastar tantos recursos en una guerra en donde no se puede atacar directamente al enemigo ,donde no hay un objetivo estrategico claro y conciso, y donde no tienes un frente civil.
@@Ghp187 de echo estrategicamente ganaron por que por cada estadounidense que moria morian unos 17 vietnamitas como digo era por un bien que ellos ademas que tenian que cruzar todo un oceano
@@jackal8331 no los gringos fallaron en sus dos objetivos principales:
Mantener a la independencia de Vietnam del sur.
Derrotar al vietcong.
Thanks for your service
what a crazy time period. such an interesting era to learn about though
This me with my friends every day
My favorite weapon on this wars is M79 Grenade Launcher. Resident Evil 2 and Terminator 2 vibes.
BLACK SABBATH❤❤👍👍✌✌
When the tree next to you starts speaking rice fields:
Or the shadows start to move
When the water starts speaking South Korean the Vietcong retreat
Everything is PERFECT this what BLACK SABBATH is trying to show
Girls : lets make a cool thot edit😍❤️
Boys: 0:00
Holy shit, this took me fucking years to find, for the love of god, thank you so much I finally found the fucking song
The veterans that served have all my respect, but those men didn’t deserve to be sent to the is hell hole over some pointless war
and think about all the viets !
it's ok. American worker killing viet worker in the name of international capitalism.
@@forZeKir “it is better to die on your feet than live your knees”. We were trying to give the south Vietnamese a chance to die on their feet, but they ended up sadly living on their knees
War is nothing good for. But that war was the most senseless war ever. Let's honor the fallen brave men. They are the true heroes.
WELCOME TO ESTALIA GENTLEMEN.
This video motivated me to make my first "Edit", thanks to the creator.
Welcome to Estalia gentlemen.
Nice clip. Remind me when i was in Bosnia 1996, outskirts of Sarayevo. Choppers, gunfight, RPG on my apc...snipers ev'rywhere...not a health walk
