A sub in the Mekong delta?

I think you should do more research when you says its the first time helicopter was use which is not true at all the first time helicopter were use was during the algeria war its the french army who did use helicopter this tactics for the first time great video.

When the White House and the State Dept direct a war, the military loses . . . ☆

WARmerica keeps losing wars...

There are more than 1M NV Soldiers and civillians died during the Vietnam war bec. of the intense bombing from the air . While the American soldiers died in Vietnam war accdng to reports rose up to 50,000 only , so when in comes to body counts North Vietnam clearly lost many of their cetizines , including their infrastructures .

15:51 😢Brave souls and Heroes

Was A Waste of American Lives ! Island had Strategic Value & All USA had to do was let starvation do its job !

Whoever edited the footage in this clip inadvertently included shots of then LTC Hal Moore CO, 1/7th Cav, 1st Air Cav Div with his troopers while on LZ X-Ray in the Ia Drang Valley in 1965. (20:50+, 21:08 and 23:06+)

medal of 'honor' is the ma$on inverted star dishonoring the God that Jesus Christ prayed to.

We were winning the war when we left. We could still be winning the war today.

My dad's older brother served with the 173rd in WW2 and Korea with 30 combat jumps & his oldest son was in Vietnam with MACVOG!

Bot voice used here gets her around on the Internet

Tarawa film also!🤪

Still got kicked out of Vietnam with tail between their legs.... Same thing in Afghanistan.... And you Yanks wanna take on Iran? Get real... Brave men and women of the American military service, serve the people not the elites and neocons. Do not die for the conceited..

There's nothing forgotten about this.

John Kerry, PBR boat captain, Purple Hearts, unless you listen to SWIFT Boat Deniers who badmouthed him with lies.

Great episode, always wondered why the US Navy didn’t name a ship after this battle.

If people only knew how a day can start and end in a instant

I fully understand that because I remember that very well and dream and dream 😂

My grandpa has/had a few high school classmates that went to Vietnam. One of them told us that one of the other men wasn’t ever the same and had taken his life. I’ve always wanted to ask his friend about it, but I don’t want to bring up any bad memories or trigger any PTSD. Thank God my grandpa was able to not go to Vietnam because he had just gotten married then had a kid. I don’t think he’d recover from something like that. I can’t begin to imagine the horrors those young men and women went through. So with all my heart I say thank you to those who served. You have my eternal respect

My mate an sas tunnel rat took his own life because what was seen was too hard for him. The things he told me were unbelievable but true.told me of some weird night vision goggles a few of the special forces and some us i think were given to test but he reckoned they all saw demons and shit. He said it was red nit green i have never heard of it and not even remembered till today and iys been 30 years. He was against taking drugs 9n combat situations but hit the weed and booze when he got home. Rip dave miller

If you guys have Prime Video watch the Vietnam war documentary “Bravo: Common Men, Uncommon Valor”. You’ll get first accounts of the men who were actually there. They are very descriptive of their stories.

Cousin died on one of these boats.he was manning the rear gun when the water jet intake pumps sucked a mine and blew up underneath him. Kenneth Dean Rankin November 16, 1969 Rivdiv 521 Boat 617 Mobile Base 1

It was stupid to close the base as it was reopened later on in the war and when it was closed it gave the whole area over to the NVA to bring more troops and other into the south. Thank you for the video.

Screaming eagles were also known as the "chicken men" to the Vietnamese because of their iconic patch. With all due respect of course, there are no eagles in their neighborhood with which to draw a distinction.

Lots of footage I've never seen. Good job.

The real snipers in WW2 ,,,DID NOT TALK ABOUT IT

Forever will have to hate the fascists

93% casualty rate for the company in the middle of the ambush. One half dead and the other half wounded with injuries that crippled them for life. They were annihilated.

I remember that time very clearly. Because of these little Patrol boats and their truly brave crews the Vietcong never controlled the Mekong like the rest of South Vietnam.

To all of our veterans, as for me and my family and friends, we love you and appreciate you welcome 🙏 home 🏡

Help me out. So, I was told that the PBR guys from the East coast had aluminum hulls and gas/diesel driven props. The West coast sailors had the fiberglass hulls and water propulsion drives. Is this accurate?

This is where the M-48 tanks took on the T-62 of the nva army. Three were knocked out after their assault failed. B.co. 10th armored.

This is what happens when you invade a country of people who are willing to die and live like rats in the process.

I remember crawling around on a PBR that the Navy scuttled on the bay side of the Silver Strand off San Diego. There was a ton of PT boat, landing craft all partially submerged. It was fun playing on those boats. This was back in the 70s and 80s. I remember SEALs were training there with explosives doing under water demo or something. We got asked to leave and they blocked off the entrance with other Navy boats kind of like a PBR. Maybe SWIC?

What a battle , the n.v a got there nose blooded, so many enemies died there was no trace of there bodies lol

I worked with man who had been on a PBR on the Mekong River. He had stories.

Mekong not meykong

war is the hell

Please check out these FACTS that are on the Web: "In 250 years of existence as a nation, the US has fought against 29 sovereign countries. (In Fact, since 1785, we have been involved, for 231 years, in some kind of war. And this wars, against all varieties of nations. From going against the Sultan of Morocco, to invading the tiny island of Grenada, 1983. Well, this means that in our entire history, we have only had 17 years of peace, and even fewer, cuz here the almost 5 years of our Civil War (Union/Confed 1861‒1865), are Not counted, since this war was not with another country, but against us. And the wars against the Native Nations of America either are not counted, for the same reason). Anyway: We fought against 29 countries. We have "Grown" 711 the size of our territory from the original 13 colonies. Our Economic, Political and Military development was established thanks to the Piracy, the Slavery, to the Looting, the Massacres, the Opium Trade or Cocaine Traffic, the indiscriminate sale of weapons on a global scale, and, the Weakness of many abused sovereign nations.

Who authorizes us to violate all International Laws and enter any country to ABUSE them? What's so "Proud" about being a nation of Looters and Criminals?

What? Did the US lose the war against Nam? OMG! Against a poor country, undeveloped, malnourished, without Navy, without Air Force, NO Marines, Green Berets, SEALs, Rangers, Delta Force, USMC, Rambos nor Chuck Norris. Defeated by a country of peasants without strategic plans, no B-59 Bombers, no PT-Boats, no Northrop F-5 "Freedom Fighter", nor Atomic Submarines. Without Aircraft Carriers, NO Continental Missiles, nor Tanks, Choppters, AR-15, Gatlin Machines’, Flamethrowers, Napalm, Agent Orange. NADA! And to top it off, defeated by an army of teenagers who had no shoes: WITHOUT SHOES!!! Army that fought with bamboo sticks!!! Charlie Kicked Our Asses and even invaded our Embassy. Jeezzz!!! Here is the Duty, Courage and Chanting of Heroism of the US Army. This is the True Story of our Country. This is the History that is already written in the US Books. And the History that was written in Afghanistan is made with the same ink.

The PBRs and Mobile Riverine Force got all the glory in the Vietnam war, but there were other US Navy units that filled critical roles during the war. The Markettime Coastal patrol units were instrumental in interdicting supplies being transported from North Vietnam to the south and and the Stable Door Harbor Defense units protected US shipping in the ports of South Vietnam.

... well, now we know that it's not about communism that was the main issue with the Vietnamese: All that their patriotic leaders and citizens simply wanted is a united Vietnam!!!

Westmoreland could have, in fact, I'm positive any, leader of war, could have defeated the North had there been no restrictions on the west, or guidelines that had to be obeyed. If Westy would been given permission in 65 to invade above the dmz, and not entertaining the Soviets or Chinese entering to defend.
