The Truth about the Vietnam War
Did the United States win or lose the Vietnam War? We are taught that it was a resounding loss for America, one that proves that intervening in the affairs of other nations is usually misguided. The truth is that our military won the war, but our politicians lost it. The Communists in North Vietnam actually signed a peace treaty, effectively surrendering. But the U.S. Congress didn't hold up its end of the bargain. In just five minutes, learn the truth about who really lost the Vietnam War.

I discuss the Vietnam War at great length in my weblog, including both observations from my tour of duty and my view on the aftermath. Sadly, the history being taught in schools today is gleaned from the pages of news reports generated by journalists seeking to espouse an ideological view rather than the facts occurring at the time. And, as if that weren't bad enough, retrospectives by celebrity journalists like Mike Wallace continue to fan the flames that consume the truth and promote the lies. Fortunately, today's high school students are reaching out. Some have found their way to my blog as well as the book I compiled from my blog postings. I have seen their book reports appearing on websites and they give me hope that the truth will prevail. I hope that other veterans share their experiences so that our story isn't all one sided

Once again it is my honor to share the story of another veteran. This one is unique in that it was written by the veteran himself. I only edited it. Hopefully, it will encourage others to open up and...

The truth is the ground war was won. Thye same democrats that are trying to ruin this country today are the same bastards that cut promised funding to the South Vietnam. Congress just left the ARVNs on their own.
