The BRUTAL & INTENSE Battle To Breakout Of Normandy (WARNING GRAPHIC)
After four years of occupation, war was closing in on the small town of Saint-Lo. After a month of savage fighting, the Allies were in a virtual stalemate with elite German SS Units, boxed in along their Normandy Beachhead. U.S. General George S. Patton boasted "Take St. Lo, and we will be in Paris within two weeks".
St. Lo was now the prime objective for the U.S. First Army to break this stalemate. Before St. Lo could be taken it was necessary for the Americans to capture the commanding heights that surrounded it, including the prevailing Hill 192. From this peak the Germans held critical surveillance enabling them to monitor the Allies movements.
The challenge ahead for the Americans was savage. General Joseph Lawton Collins, a veteran of the Pacific Theater, remarked that the irregular patchwork terrain called 'bocage' was as bad as anything he had seen on Guadalcanal. American tanks could not penetrate the thick walls to accompany infantry assaults. As a result, the infantry was compelled to go over the top, in near suicidal frontal attacks.

Traveling from the city of Caen in northern France to the nearby town of Evrecy, a traveler can hardly notice that the road is climbing up a small hill. Only at the top of the hill does the view open up to the entire valley between the rivers Orne and Odon. A few yards aside from the road, in the patchwork of fields, stands a small monument with an image of a wyvern and an inscription: “To the ...

I remember seeing a young man in fatigues with no rank on his sleeve but it can be a infantryman badge mounted on his uniform at chest level. That young man was standing out in the open bawling make a little child, it was obviously psychologically disturbed. I completed my basic training, then went to the army signal school, and subsequently served one tour in Vietnam, as well as one in Korea. I never went through the hell of a horrifically bloody battle such as that.

    The truth about the Vietnam War that was never fully told. United States had No intention of winning the Vietnam War from the very beginning. Fear it might become like the Korean War with mass continuing Communist Chinese troops from China pouring against American military force in Vietnam. And the threat of a thermal nuclear War with the Soviet Union during the Cold War following the Cuban missile crisis that happen in 1962. The Vietnam War started during the Civil Rights movement and racial tension between whites and blacks all across America. Several members in the US government were segregationist and they had their eyes dumping their Blacks problem on Vietnam with the chaos that was happening in Vietnam at that time between Communist North Vietnam and South Vietnam. At that time, the South Vietnamese had 250,000 troops and North Vietnamese had 60,000 troops and the DMZ line had already been establish at the 17th parallel. Many Vietnamese peoples from both North and South did Not support going to War and killing each other over the idea of Communist. Even though several North and South Vietnamese leaders believe Vietnam should Not be divided and try to distrupt one another. But they couldn't rally enough support among the Vietnamese peoples in Vietnam to support going to War. Until Nov. 2, 1963 When US President JF Kennedy and LB Johnson order his CIA to stage a military coup assasination on a catholic South Vietnamese President, Ngô Đình Diệm and his young brother Ngô Đình Nhu. This action give America the power to do what ever they want to Vietnam and to the Vietnamese peoples. And the US appointed an ex-Vietminh soldiers for Ho Chi Minh, Nguyễn Văn Thiệu as their puppet South Vietnamese President. The South Vietnamese President who cause the lives of 500,000 South Vietnamese troops killed or capture by the North Vietnamese army and their communist allies The Pathet Lao army, and the Communist Khmer Rouge army of Cambodia when he order them to be station and patrol in Kampuchea. And who told Nguyễn Văn Thiệu to do so? The United States, fear more Americans troops will be killed in Kampuchea. 20 days after the military coup assassination of South Vietnamese President Ngô Đình Diệm and his young brother Ngô Đình Nhu. US President JF Kennedy was assasinated in Dallas, TX on Nov 22, 1963 and LB Johnson was sworn in as the 36th US President. On Aug 10, 1964, US President LB Johnson declare US military action to Vietnam over an alleged attack on a US destroyer, Maddox that was on patrol past the 17th parallel near Hanoi, the capital of North Vietnam. While supporting the South Vietnam. 500,000 US ground troops was sent to fight in Vietnam. 40% of those US troops that were sent to fight in Vietnam were adult blacks male along with high school drop out white male, non-college white male, trouble teen white male, and white convict male were all sent to fight in Vietnam. And when these US troops arrive in Vietnam and they did their "Search and Destroyed mission." The Communist North Vietnam gain mass support for their cause and their army grew from 60,000 troops to over 1,000,000 troops. On March 16, 1968, several group of US platoons military unit rape and massacre 500 Vietnamese villagers of women, childrens, and old peoples at the village called My Lai during their Search and Destroyed mission. When news and image of My Lai massacre broadcast all across America. There was a mass out cry of protest all across America. Demanding all US millitary force pull out of Vietnam. This lead to Republican Presidential candidate Richard Nixon winning the Nov. 3, 1968 US Presidential election. The following year, when Richard Nixon took office. His 1st excutive order was to pull out all US military force out of Vietnam. By then, the communist North Vietnamese army was already infiltrate all over in South Vietnam and attacking every where since the Tet offensive that happen on Jan 30, 1968 - Sept 23, 1968. President Nixon order a nonstop US B52 bombers to bombed Hanoi, the capital of North Vietnam and its seaport military supply, Haiphong. This halted the advance of the North Vietnamese army taking over all of South Vietnam. The South Vietnamese army began retaking back many city and town from Communist North Vietnam in the South. But all that end, on August 8, 1974, when US President Richard Nixon made a televise annoucement of his resignation as US President to American peoples over the Watergate Scandal. This was a few months from the US Congressional election. On Nov. 5, 1974 The Democrats party won a landslide in the US Senate and the House of Representative. The following year in 1975, the newly elected Democrats took their seat in Congress. The 1st bill of law pass was to cut off all US military aids funding to South Vietnam. This action cause the Fall of Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam on April 30, 1975 to communist North Vietnam. Thus began a mass flow of Vietnamese refugee fleeing out of Vietnam. 10 of thousands of Vietnamese refugee died at sea from hunger, thirst, illness, Thai pirates, and Chinese warships. Today over 100's of thousands young South Vietnamese childrens are born of birth defect from the US toxic biological chemical, Agent Orange which the US military spray all over rivers and forest of South Vietnam. 3,000,000 innocent Vietnamese civilians of women, childrens, and old peoples had to die in their country during the Vietnam War. The Vietnam War is the worse United States War Crime in history. From Truman, JF Kennedy and LB Johnson were all were WWI and WWII veteran who sent the next young American men to become killers. Why I post this is because for years I'm tired Americans use Vietnam War as a Propaganda War story. Telling peoples that they there to help South Vietnam fight against communist North Vietnam. When America is the root cause for the Vietnam War and the downfall of South Vietnam. .

    Mcauther's glory paid for with American life's . This island should have been bypassed like Nimetz wanted!!!!. I shall return, Mcauther's infamous words. My dad was told by his buddy that they were on a hill watching Mcauther come ashore 3 days after the area was secured. They set off dynamite to look like shells exploding in the back ground when he filmed his landing in the Philippines for the cameras.
