I have been curious about this documentary ever since I heard the soundbites in the Paul Hardcastle composition '19'. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for posting these three segments.
Paul Hard Castle's "19" stuck in my head since I first saw his video as a kid in 1980's US. This film provides unfiltered insight into war and it's repercussions. It should be required viewing for all commissioned or enlisted military persons before they sign that contract.
Born in ‘66.....by the time I was five and the US finally crashed out of Saigon, Cambodia and Vietnam were my background soundtrack, whilst things were going downhill in Northern Ireland.....Soldiers, Soldiers everywhere, Death n Sadness and no one cares.... Sitting here in ‘23 and this is just as powerful, if not more so, than in ‘82, when it was filmed..... I remember an Officer from the Scots Guards, that had battled up Mount Tumbledown in the Falklands, describing the difference in sound that a high velocity rifle round makes when it hits a body, as opposed to stone, or earth...and you’re straight back in the room with Sgt Dodds.....sad, sad stuff.....
I ask myself, what happend to these brave us soldiers today in 2024? Are they still alive? Did they made it through their situation? Greets from Gernany
1:46 : this man's analogy about sending his kids down the street is dead on. The nation should have been there for them. Hopefully America will treat its veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan better than it did its men in Vietnam.
The Vietnam war.....the "gift" that keeps on giving. I am a Vietnam/Draft resistor. There is a saying, "by their fruits you shall know them". Vietnam was a multi-facet tragedy that still effects America 50 years later. These people are a microcosm of it.

I wonder what became of the guys in the film ... anyone know?
Albert passed away in December 2010 and Duane Maybe has passed on as well.
They would be in their mid-70’s but as stated 2 might have passed.....
Kenneth has passed away too!
1:46 : this man's analogy about sending his kids down the street is dead on. The nation should have been there for them. Hopefully America will treat its veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan better than it did its men in Vietnam.
and yet in the beginning… They were all….. 19

As I said in the other video these guys are weak and make soldiers look bad
