x1stcav, Thank you for contributing! But please, I don't understand what you just said. See, I'm a victim of NEA. I honestly did not know what Vietnam was until I JUST STARTED reading about it.
Vietnam is no longer mentioned in schools. This started years ago. I graduated from public school in 1986. I've been through college with a double major.
You want to really laugh? I never knew who the first world war was fought against until my husband told me just withing the past 2 years.
So please, what you said really sounds interesting. Can you expand?
Your not the victim of public school. Just red liberal teachers & administrators!

One thing to remember about trying to learn about Vietnam. Is there is no one good source on it.
Because of the time span. And the many very different types of terrain. And most being there only one year (or less for some unnamed person) Each persons outlook will be different. Someone that was there in 1969 will have a different “What it was like “ than someone that was there in 1972
And when they do mention it they lie about what happened there, over and over again. Hopefully the victory of those who want America to be victorious in this election will begin the process of getting the truth told in our schools after over thirty years of falsehood.
