- Henry Fonda-narrated 1966 ABC documentary that follows a wounded soldier in Vietnam from the field, through the medical system, and back home to the USA.
It aired on ABC TV October 24, 1966 and again in January 1967.
Time Magazine: "Henry Fonda narrates a documentary recording the everyday heroism of helicopter pilots, doctors and flight nurses in Viet Nam."
TV Guide: " The thrilling story of combat medical teamwork in a jungle war ... of the inconspicuous heroes who risk their lives to save others. In a word, the story of courage...."
This is a USAF copy and they've given it the training film number "STF 1763."
My Uncle Dennis Aldrich made it home to Stevens Point, Wi. You can see my Grandparents, Great Grandmother and Aunts welcoming him home. He is still here in Wisconsin. He had a wonderful life, took in additional family and raised them as his own with his wonderful wife Bonnie. He has had many health issues over the years from his trauma in Viet Nam, but is a wonderful man.
I am so glad to hear this.
What an amazing man and so glad he made it home God Bless him always X🙏
@@Bevrinton Denis died two years ago. After his recovery, he volunteered for another tour of duty in Vietnam
@@Wowzersdude-k5c Denis died 2 years ago. But he is on record as saying that such was the treatment of the returning troops by the peace movement in the US, that he volunteered to return for another tour of duty in Vietnam. He said he volunteered to go back in order to save his life, as the US was in such a state at the time.
Sounds like Henry Fonda narrating this video. I thought he was a hardcore liberal.
I served from 1965 to 67 . I was a medical specialist E/4 . I still live with those memories of that time . To all that served welcome home and to all 58,000 that didn't you will never be forgotten . 1/9 th Cav.US Army
Welcome home
This was my ride out on valentine's day 1970.MANY THANKS FROM 52 YEARS LATER
@@petepounds6167 Hi Pete, it’s 6am here in Scotland and I have just finished watching this documentary, where you one of the Soldiers on that aircraft back to the states?
Kindest regards

Welcome home brother.
Advisory Team 87 ‘71-‘72
My father was with 1st Cav (2/12) in 66-67. He was never (seriously) wounded, but lots of guys in his company were. Much respect to anyone who was there.
Every soldier that served in Vietnam in my opinion is a huge hero
Medics are generally extremely brave men. Respect to all Veterans.,🙏
my mom did two tours in vietnam as a combat nurse of the US Army, thats how she met my daddy who was a seal, he was wounded pretty badly and woke up to her changing his morphine bag in a field hospital
My Dad arrived in Vietnam in March of 1968 and was assigned to B co 3rd Bn 47th Infantry, 9th Division. While patrolling the muddy water ways, the deep thick mud and endless rice paddies of the Mekong Delta he witnessed many of his fellow troopers sustaining all types of wounds, many of them were very SERIOUS wounds.....In his own words, he felt some of them "weren't worth saving" because of the serverity of the wounds etc.. However, because of the UH-1 Huey medivac helicopter, known as the "dust off,"...the lives of these men were able to be saved....Thank the GOD in heaven for the combat medics, the crews who flew the helicopters, and the surgeons and nurses who performed around the clock to save our finest who do the dirty work of fighting America's wars.
My oldest brother was a medic with the 19th Casualty Staging Flight at Clark AFB when this was made. He remembers many of the people in the film, even some of the patients.
Vietnam 1969 (navy). It was a part of my life full of excitement and living a sailors life. Cooked for marines and Navy. The medical personnel really deserve credit for the great work they did.
There is actually no words to sufficiently express what truly great people all of these dedicated medical crews were, regardless of your opinion of the war. True angels.

God bless.those men and all those who sacrificed their youth in vietnam.
I was born in 1968. I have vague memories of the effects the war had on the climate of daily life. There was a melancholy and unsettling feeling in the air. Parts of this documentary make me cry. Seeing those who were wounded. Some having the ability to smile and those with such a deep look of pain in their eyes-forever changed by their injuries. I have the utmost respect and compassion for everyone involved. The sheer bravery and utter sacrifice everyone made. God bless those who served and their families. Never forgotten.
Thank you to all our service men and women God bless you all
Amen! God Bless you all and Thank you to all our Service men and women . You are Heros an brave men and women . I Salute all of you for your courage and bravery. GOD AND HIS ANGELS WERE ALWAYS WATCHING OVER ALL OF YOU .
My Heart goes out for of you that served in Vietnam an in other wars . The pain both wounded an of the emotions you when through is heartbreaking for me . I break down in tears when I see in thes videos just is so heartbreaking and terrible What all of you we through. To the ones who died an suffered I wish I could have died an suffered for a of you . Because of the Love God has placed in my heart is so great towards all of you . I would have taken your place so you would not have to go through all you went through. God's Blessings on all of you. Jesus loves an cares about you an I do too .See you in Heaven is my hope an my prayer . You are in my prayers . My husband was. In the military an in the Army at this time . He was to go to Vietnam.
We were able to see what these warriors went through 16 minutes after getting wounded on the battlefield . That's insane ! And those nurses and doctors are literally blessings from God at how they treated these young men . This generation is amazing , it goes to show what the mentality was like on those days . That one soldier with the bandaged hand, when asked if he would like help eating and he said " no, I would like to do it myself " what a guy . It's beautiful to see these being taken care of the way they deserve ... You know, after being sent over there and all .
God's a fallacy
This is incredible work being done here. You can actually see them from battle field to hospital on land. Its incredible love my country and a big thank you to all in medical field. And thank you for saving my cousin and his leg he was shot into his third year of battering thank you all.
My eldest brother came back from Vietnam, sadly his mind didn't follow. I have the utmost respect for the men and women that went into that Hell hole and fought and worked to save lives. I served and fought many many years later in a different conflict, but I do not think what I went through will ever compare to what these heros endured.
God Bless all my brothers and sisters that served and fought for America, may God keep his hand upon you.
You are absolutely right
For America?!? For the dirty stinking EVIL elite so called upperclass psychopathic parasitic authority's you mean!!! It's 2020, stop fooling YOURSELF, and be TRUTHFULL in the first place to YOUR CHILDREN!!! All of you, educate your children to stay away as far as posible from the puppet armed forces and other puppet police organisations like lawenforcement ( whom's laws anyway?!? ). Leave God out of this madness, PEOPLE NEED TO UNITE AND STOP SERVING THE DEVIL DAY IN DAY OUT!!!
God bless the men and women who fought in Vietnam God damn the lying politicians who sent them .
@@willemvanlent6955 You see. Good post.
Viet Nam 1971.
Vietnam represents the beginning of the US Population’s fall to Cynicism and distrust of Government.
We made GRAVE MISTAKES in the Cold War (I helped to enact some of the worst of those mistakes, based upon beliefs that were themselves based-upon lies and disinformation fed to us by people in power whose own motivations were gravely and direly questionable), and we are now beginning to pay for it.
I had MANY friends who were older who had served in Vietnam. They varied greatly in how they coped with the war, with those who served in the Army and Marines and Riflemen or other Infantry, or “Front-line Combatants” faring worst of all. Some of them would take their lives in the 1990s, unable to cope with the increasingly rapid changes of the world, and the Veterans’ Administration’s inadequate care for addressing Psychological Issues (the 1990s is when they began to shift-away from the older, WWII attitude of “Suck it up!” Or “Man-up!” when soldiers had combat related psychological or psychiatric issues).
They deserved better.
I don't know who the 35 that didn't like this video are but it's quite apparent they never had to experience this situation. I had my right leg almost ripped out below the knee and really appreciate all the folks that were able to treat me and get me back to the States to heal and learn how to walk again. After a lengthy hospital visit I went back to VN to work on the Crash and Recovery team at CDB where I was able to repay the AF for the the great treatment I received by helping to save others. God Bless the men and women that I served with over there and to this present day.
Medivac.!! For those of you who
Really know. Can't thank you
Enough.....magnificent. !
The nurses sure keep everyone calm. True Angels.
Thank God...I have seen them in action...unreal
Nurses are the real deal
My 2 oldest brothers served in Vietnam. One on the front lines in a half track and one crew chief of a huey. Both came home safely thank God. I can still see my mother sobbing at the window in the Detroit airport when they left.
That must have been very comforting to the soldier in the field to know world class treatment was only 15 minutes away.
military nurses are angels, i remember being treaded by a female combat nurse. My Respect. i told my son to respect females in the military.
Brendan McCreanor - so long as they do female jobs.
God bless you and thank you for your service!
@@woodyhayes7402 GTF outta here with that shit
Alan Peters - Oh, you been brainwashed. Sucks for you.

To all combat nurse's and field medical personnel...from one veteran to another God bless you and thank you angels from heaven.
You're dam straight.. could you imagine what we could do if pointed in the right direction..and God bless
As a Navy brat, I experience first hand the great care the military got by their doctors and nurses . I had several surgeries at the old and new Naval hospital at Charleston SC Naval Base, when I was 16, in 1972, I broke my femur . I could not ask for any better doctors or nurses . The corpsmen were fantastic too . I was on a ward called Bravo ward . We had wounded Marines from Vietnam there to . One in the bed next to me, lost both legs and was only 2 years older than me when he got wounded . To all the veterans who commented on this site, I want you to know, I very much appreciate your service .
Oh my God, thanks so much for you guys that served our brothers like that
My daddy was a Marine in Vietnam 1966-67 hometown Bayamon Puerto Rico,Sempe Fi daddy and all the brave men who served!
Don C Nunez thanks
God bless your daddy!
Muchas gracias. God bless you.
The Golden Hour, they always come, Angels of mercy.
I found this very interesting in that I was a combat medic for two years, so I could identify with the first part of it. Then I left the Army and joined the Air Force and I worked the part of unloading the cargo planes at the other end and configuring the plane for the next load out!
There were occasions ehen Dustoff aircraft weren't available and we were called in to pick up wounded. Usually we'd grab a medic and take off. Other times we were closest aircraft and the gunner and I would have to treat wounded. My respect for Dustoff crews was off the scale. At least we had M60s...
This was very well made. Henry Fonda did an excellent job of narrating it. It took so many professionals to save these men and women, from the initial medic or corpsman in the field to the Dustoff crews to the field hospitals to the forward hospitals to the aeromedical evacuation crews on back to the hospitals in the US. The three nurses featured in this film were all professionals and were excellent representatives of military nurses. Thanks for sharing this!
And Henry Fonda was generally opposed to the war.
Edit: It could be that he did this to separate himself from his kids’ more radical opposition to the War. A demonstration that opposition did not mean abandoning those fighting what would turn-out to be not just a lost cause, but a war based upon a lie, concocted out of our paranoid and pathological fear of Stalinist and Maoist Totalitarianism (which we identified as “Communism”).
Henry Fonda was very much a Humanist, in that he cared for Humanity, even when that Humanity is making horrible mistakes.
That soldier Dennis who got that shrapnel in his back ... Poor man . The fact that they couldn't give him an anesthetic because he would die . They showed that doctor forcing those scissors into his back by pounding it in, in order to get that piece of shrapnel out of his lung . The pain that he went through was unimaginable, I'm glad he recovered .
He looked to be in hell. Having shrapnel in his lung and you could tell he could barely breathe. Nothing more tortuous than feeling like you can't breathe. I can't imagine.
And these Angels may not receive physical wounds on the battlefield but they have emotional and psychological wounds for ever
i was wincing when Dennis aldrich came off the dust off and they were working on him without anaesthetic.Amazing how modern and effective the american war machine was back then .Those nurses were also true heroes for why they did for those injured soldiers going home .This documentary was unreal the footage was very rare thankyou
Bless all our service men and women.
God Bless these experts...well done and God Bless You
Wow !,, these were some Dedicated, Professional people! As I watched, I began to realize what logistics, and the Cost !!,, to provide those logistics.. The Pain these unfortunate soldiers showed, was heart wrenching.. You can BET,, there were Very few,, who were Son’s of politicians, or the upper echelon elites.. It makes me wonder, what if we spent all the money we spend to ConDuct wars,, sharing with All peoples we seem to fight ?? Seems to me, we’d have more Friends,, than enemies.. With Respect, and Empathy, to ALL who suffer, dave. 😊❤️✌️
my god these guys are brave,i am in complete awe when i watch this stuff.....i feel like such a coward compared to these men....
John Jereb who knows what they are capable of until they in a situation of danger..........NOBODY does, bravery and heroism is something that can’t be learned, it is within all of us, but only a few ever need to use it, I say few, only because in the grand scheme of life they are the few.
1 bai hoc cho nuoc my .vn vu khi rat tho so danh bai tat ca cac nuoc hieu chien.thoi nay vn thi khac nua ....
Always makes me wonder if I could rise up to the challenge as they did!
No sleep tonight love all these guys and the nurses many years in Vietnam left without a scratch
I was a Dustoff medic in Vietnam, '65-'66. I was puzzled by the statement when Aldrich reached the aid station: "He cannot be given anesthesia and live".
James Van Doren o
Maybe he`s morphin overdosed
He had shrapnel in his lung
I can only imagine that due to the nature of his wounds that any anesthetiser would cause his vitals to be unsustainable. I have had quite a few major operations over the years and on at least one occasion have had my procedure postponed due to low blood pressure, maybe it was the same for Aldrich.
Go bless you James and thank you for your service!
I was at Scott AFB for clinicals during the early years of the GWOT, '03 - '04. The technology has changed, but the mission and principles are the same. The soldier in the story reminded me of the first time I had a patient that was a combat casualty, they had begun destabilizing in-flight and they put down at Scott.
Richard, that solder is my Uncle Dennis. It is such an awesome piece of history that I cherish.
@@mbannach11 I'm glad he made it through the ordeal! I hope he's lived a happy life
To all the vietnam veterans who where confined at the clark airbase hospital in the philippines. It's still there standing but now haunted. Visitors, veterans, and former hospital staffs still visit the place.
Been there, don't remember much though.
I salute all of the Medics, Flight nurses and everyone else that helped save 1000's of of wounded and shot up people all over the world. I went out on some Medivacs in 1964 &1965 (or to pick wounded and dead people up) in VN, and it was no picnic since none of were trained as Medics, only as crew chiefs or gunners.
I’d give my CIB to those angels of mercy. Luv those gals!
I lived in a small town of 25 people in Wesco missouri ...I remember my friend Alan dicus telling me about his brother dying in Vietnam..... My brother also was a Vietnam veteran the war had already killed him after he returned in 1990 he would commit suicide.
Thank you, That was an awesome journey thank you so much and blessings and prayers for all the legends and heroes that fight in that battle for the United States
Very sad to see all these images, so much suffering in a war that was unnecessary.
Wow, talk about no expense spared! I had no idea of the scope involved, no wonder the casualty recovery rate was so good.
Been there done that as a corpsman with the 1st. Med.Batt. 1st. Marine division. 1966/67
Later personaly WIA while serving in the field. Disabled at 100%, half for wounds received and half for PTSD. Proud to have served with a fine group of young men. But will not do it again for anymore B.S. reasons and lies.
Thanks ‘Devil Doc’.... Y’all were like our big brothers... ‘Corpsman Up’’.... and they were there... Every time...SEMPER FI
LIMA-2-BRAVO
OUT
I an surprised that they showed the public such graphic and horrific injuries and wounds our fine soldiers were getting !!......God Bless ALL Vietnam Combat Vets.......Hero's.....ALL of them.
I was a shotgunner on Helos. I felt bad for the kids we carried out there and am still spooked by what we brought back. My Crew Chief let me run my gun my way. I was good with the M60 but I found out about a set for twin M60s and the guns. Finally got them on the bird and the double ammo weight pissed the Chief off every mission until we took fire an I opened those SOBs up. They pushed the bird some. I could cut an LZ in one spin. I fired those same two guns for the rest of my fly time 4 months. I used them in support or to F with C. No need in hauling all that ammo back. Time is short. Recon what the big guy is gonna do about all this killing and war.
Such compassion. Would have saved more lives if the powers that be got rid of Westmoreland, the worst General this country ever had run a war, or even better, hadn't sent those young guys to Vietnam in the first place.

I did a few times bring in Hadji insurgents who were wounded in combat by our unit to be MEDEVACED to Balad, Baghdad, Camp Echo, Talil or anywhere in Iraq for surgery. I got pulled out of combat along with my squad to escort them. Luckily that week the infantry company which we were fighting in Sadr City of Baghdad took no casualties but inflicted casualties on Hadji. I was chosen because I have previous experience in handling Hadji detainees and knew basic Arabic commands in my previous combat tour. So my squad basically became baby sitters for enemy Hadjis that were wounded or become prisoners to be taken back for interrogation or medical treatment. Once we dropped them off I had to take my squad back to my unit basically hitch hiked back. Sometimes it took a day or a few days to rejoin the unit and go back into combat as soon as we got back. We were known as the "Iraqi Babysitting Squad". I was the only NCO in the company and battalion who knew how to navigate back to the unit by traveling by ground convoy, helicopter, or aircraft where ever in Iraq. Even the battalion commander and my C.O. started calling me "SGT. Hitch" for hitchhiker. Me and my squad pulled double duty in every combat operation besides being infantrymen. Even being pulled out of combat the chopper that you fly in has a good chance of crashing, the vehicle that we rode in had a 50/50 chance of being hit with an IED or ambushed. The only safe place to be is in the FOB where we don't get shot at but an occasional rocket or mortar hit the FOB.

Nice try hero but not even close
stop crying
@@101vet5 Gotta love the reply button. Have a good life Sweet Pea! LOL!😀
Firstly, i think its so disrespectful and tacless having adverts cutting in to a programme like this but i have come to expect these sort of things from those who run this.
my eyes filled with water seeing and hearing the solider who stepped on on a Claymore.
So young and so much pain and the shock he must of been in.
Dust off crews were for me a different breed of super human and i can only imagine how many times bigger The Wall would of been without them.
My father was a naval pilot, shot down and killed in VN. We knew he was dead, another pilot confirmed that dad's plane had exploded without any ejection, so we never had the questions of what happened.
I stood at the top of our staircase that cold Virginia morning, six days before Christmas. I was 7 and my 4 yr old sister was sleeping. I peeked through the stairwell and watched the chaplain and a couple officers tell my mom that she no longer had a life partner or a father for her kids. She whimpered and that really scared me, but whimpered is the only word I can think to use, holding a couch pillow to her mouth, I heard her say I don't wanna wake the kids.
I wish I could say that my sweet and beautiful mom kept it together and with strength and fortitude carried on with life. But I think that ending, or 2nd chapter even, is mostly for novels and feel good stories. My mom started drinking and even became angry at her dead spouse. I couldn't tell you the number of night I heard her yelling out in her slurred voice to my father, calling him out for having the nerve to leave her in this mess.
When I turned 14, my sister and I went to live with our grandparents on my dad's side. I saw my mom once, a few months after that on my sisters birthday when mom brought over some presents.
Not long after that, my mom killed herself by drinking automotive antifreeze over what I was told was likely a hundred aspirin tablets. I have spent decades imagining how unhappy she must have been.
I had a therapist tell me once that surely my mom must have been unhappy to some extent prior to my father's death, saying that the change was just too dramatic. But that is 100% not true. Until the morning I stood and watched my mom hyperventilate into a pillow, we were the happiest people I could imagine. I have have said it since then, my mom met my dad in Jr High, and she could not go on without him.
Sorry for dragging on .. I loved this piece
Getting the injured back asap was vital to saving life , US had the best medivac plan when they could underfire even !
God Bless them Abundantly
It was very cruel for politicians to send an entire generation of young men to Vietnam for the dumbest reason imaginable. Bless all the boys who were hurt of killed in that war.
The Democrat's Hero John F Kennedy got us into Vietnam
No way I could have spat on those brave men returning home after fighting while protesters we're made up of scared ppl who were drafted but rather went to jail rather than serve their country when their country called. At least these guys had balls and fought thy enemy thank you to all personal of the army during Vietnam god bless you all
Charles Hunter I sir was a protestor against an unjustified and unnecessary war in Vietnam, and am PROUD to have done so! Furthermore I am convinced that history has shown that the war was unjustified and unnecessary! It would be hard to make the case that a Vietnam under Communism is/has been a threat to anyone! I hope... although I doubt it will happen... that the U.S. has learned an invaluable lesson of staying out the business of other independent nations.
@@robertroselle5073 are you aware that the communists imprisoned intellectuals and anyone who disagreed with them? That they executed people merely for trying to stand up to them? There was a reason for us to be in Vietnam and, although the South Vietnamese government was a bad one, the communists were probably worse. The communists were a threat to their own people.
You are positive all the protesters were drafted and decided not to go ? Maybe some of those protesters went to Vietnam and came back and protested. Maybe some of them didn't spit on the returning soldiers. Maybe some of them saw the fallacy of the war and didn't want to see young men die for questionable reasons. Maybe they are the ones who cared for the troops lives, not the so-called patriots. It's pretty ignorant to generalize all the protesters like you know each of their stories and reasons for being against the war.
@@robertroselle5073 Robert in all due respect don't you love the ability to state your opinion and have the insurance that there's no consequences for your opinion sure you can take the stance that we shouldn't get involved in other countries civil wars but to but it in perspective if your fellow man was getting robbed or raped would you take the stance that it's not my business and I shouldn't get involved that's weak and I would hope you're not my neighbor many think that it was for all the wrong reasons just like the civil war world war 1 world war 2 the Korean war and Vietnam and the cold war some people can't distinguish from right and wrong even though they live in a country that affords them the ability to have their opinion think about it are you oppressed or denied free will I wonder why everyone around the world has set their goals to get to America so it can't be as much of a shit hole that you make it out to be and one more thing if you know your history and are aware of the fall of Saigon and the desperation seen by all I guess you would say that's not my business sorry about your luck try protesting in Tiananmen square and let me know how that works out
@@oldesertguy9616 oh. I am a vietnamese. I disagree with your opinion because no one want to fight. We fought to unity whole country and for freedom.
Field medical lessons learned in Vietnam, saved so many in the war in Afghanistan and Iraq.
I suspect that Henry Fonda did the narration for this film as a reaction to his children’s more Radical opposition to the War.
Henry Fonda himself was opposed to the war. But he demonstrated that being opposed to the war did NOT mean abandoning or attacking the Soldiers for doing their job, and following orders.
Fonda had a strained relationship with his daughter especially over what he saw as her betrayal of the USA. His relationship with Peter did not seem to be as strained over the war, but there was still some distance for a while.
As much as the government erred in the commission of that War, the population erred in its treatment of the soldiers, and in the reaction to the government.
My dad served with the Herd 1st brigade as a medic 66-67.

Great programs ,Paul. Real unsettling times.

If I had gone to Vietnam I'd have come back dead.
Great job 👌👍
Wonder which side shot the poor young woman who was riding the bike. 4 family members died on the same day. War sucks.. even more for the civilians.
When I get drafted I want the combat nurses helper position

1966 in May I was on my way to Viet Nam aboard USS DALE DLG19 for the first of 2 WESPAC Cruises. Seems like yesterday and seems like another life a century ago.
Weapons could be replaced, human losses couldn't.
All I can say is thank you for you're service. I hope God blessed every one of you guys. The Dr's are very good at what they do but they can't save everyone. It's up to God!!! They went to fight Communist I have a bad feeling were going to have to do it again only this time we will be fighting each other. God help us!!!!!!
My God that was hard to watch that soldier fighting to leve those men so Young. Beyond brave man it make u think if the US people kept in . I know obviously it was brutal but I think if the reporters in the government just showed everything rather than try and censored it at I think the people would have stayed behind them are veteran the man supposed to that everyday and then what they went through when they came home

SEVEN SPANISH ANGLES BROTHER ANOTHER ANGLE HOME. THANKS. DOCTORS. FOR SAVING US.
PILOTS.YOU HAVE SEEN FIRE AND YOU HAVE SEEN RAIN AND HAVE SEEN DAYS THAT YOU THOUGHT WOULD NEVER END. AND THERE TIMES YOU COULD NOT FIND A FRIEND. BUT IT WAS BECAUSE THEY WERE DEAD. FIRE WAS THE EXPOSITION AND RAIN WAS THE MOSOM. LET IT BE KNOWN THAT I HAVE SEEN THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE. AND I AM PROUD OF YOU AND I RESPECT YOU AND HONOR YOU. MAY MY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS.
The video is over. I can breath again.
That medical team sure was a well oiled machine.
So many times we were walking thru the heavy jungle and we were walking into an ambush. LBJ micro managed this war. He selected the targets for the air force in the North Vietnam area. Often the air force flew over railroad flat cars loaded with missiles, ammunition, machine guns and other weapons and went to the assigned target a power plant, a bridge, ect. The weapons were allowed to be transported to South Vietnam and were used against our troops and the local vietnamese. We had the finest military weapons but weren't permitted to effectively fight the war. Too much micro managing.
the brutal reality of war..
They went into the service as boys and came back as men
And, unfortunately, way too many didn't come back at all...
Men...with issues in some cases. My Uncle John was drafted in '68. He left as a Missouri farm boy and came back a drug addict. It finally killed him in 1983. As far as I am concerned his name should be on the Vietnam Memorial wall.

DUSTOFF choppers may well have been subject to limitation on their use of weapons-BUT someone forgot to tell the NVA and VC.
