Fuck america ( 1945) 😡
My grandpa served in the war
This should be shown to kids who love and plays Call of Dut or any other War Games
People still don't know the consequences of war
Imagine if the rich had to fight their own wars.
The scarry things about this, that I don't get disturbed
Vietnam should have been nuked
Some things can never be erased from your mind. Real war.
so glad those Yankees dead.
Damn most of these comments are racist as fuck
Our Vietnamese heros fought for the nation. for freedom and independence. from the invaders
The enemies are the Americas
american democracy

The fact that there is no sound makes this video even more disturbing
Nightmare fuel

Sadness
This is the war history of the USA. Every conflict America has been in since the Foundation of the country only two wars have been just war's first and second World Wars. The rest have been genocidal war's against civilian populations.
