“The MSM will never touch this. The history is written the way they like it and they aren’t going to change it.”

You nailed it.

The left wing mediots and their masters who controlled the MSM at that time lied about everything from Tet to the reality of Kerry/Fonda/Ted Kennedy and that sadly has become our history.

ABC, NBC and CBS plus the print media lied 24/7/365 about what happened in Nam and at home re the protesters, and as I noted above, that is now our history.

Well said and 100% correct.

Had it not been for the enemedia giving credibility to the antiwar faction I doubt the slime ball politicians would have cut off funds to South Vietnam, but we’ll never know.

Good morrning Dave,

I was in DaNang when the Kent State incident happened but I don't recall if it was ever reported on AFVN radio. I heard about it from an A Brancher who got a letter from home with a news clipping enclosed. He was pretty upset, he'd attended Kent State prior to service.

But that's just an aside; a couple years later, after I was separated and got back to the World, the story came out that there were shots fired from a dorm which set off the firing by the Nat'l Guard. Again, if I recall correctly, there was a starter pistol found that had been recently fired (several times) during the follow up investigation.

Anyone else remember that?
