Do the peddlers of misinformation really not understand that misinformation is as important as guns and ammunition in war. We won every major battle in Vietnam; we had complete air and naval superiority. But the enemy had people on the left whole heartedly spreading humiliating misinformation and treating our own young men and women with contempt.

Our soldiers were typically treated better on leave in Saigon than they were when they returned to the United States. We have heard first hand accounts repeatedly that during the Vietnam War nurses and female personnel could walk the streets safely in uniform in Saigon. But in Honolulu nurses and other female personnel were often told to conceal that they were members of the military in public for their own safety.

The North Vietnamese prevailed because of traitors like Hanoi Jane.

“We won every major battle in Vietnam;”

True and true. But I recall Vo Nguyen Giap boasting that he was winning battles on the streets of American cities and on the campuses of American universities.

Seems like the crazies are back, only worse and that Fonda may get the last laugh.

Except that Americans are armed to the teeth; bring the revolution and there will be antifa blood in the streets.
