It's taken almost 35 years to finally have peace with my self.I still don'know if we were right or wrong being there.I think we betrayed those people when we left,not us but our bureaucrats.Vietnam was abeautiful country,if not for the war.If i want remember all i have to do is close my eyes the firefights,explosions cordite smell,cussing and praying becomes very vivid.I once asked a Korean War marine dose it ever go away,He said NEVER. Iserved with 2/4 marines
