Some in Vietnam believe the U.S. military may be looking to their country as a future strategic area to establish a base to counter growing Chinese influence in Southeast Asia. But Marine said that was not the case.

Gee, ya think?

Perhaps we could give them Jane Fonda as a gesture of good will? They could bronze her and use her as a Statue of Liberty, or whatever.

Until the Vietnamese Commies account for the thousands of American MIA & POW's I couldn't care less what is done over there.

Of course Ford Motor Company, for one, has no problem doing business with the Commies. Heck, Ford proudly flies the Vietnamese Communist flag at corporate headquarters in Michigan.
As far as Ford is concerned, to hell with the thousands of unaccounted for American POW's & MIA's and their families!

Semper Fi,

When we dock a few ships at Cam Ranh Bay, then we will know that America has "returned" to VN. One of the best natural harbors in the world. Key to protecting the Straits of Malaaca, through which, approx. 40% of world's oil and goods travels.

Alternatively, the planning for a canal through Thailand continues...
