The Vietnam War Through The Lens Of A Camera | Vietnam...Through My Lens | Documentary Central 

Tremendous storytelling of sacrifice and honor in the lives of Vietnam combat veterans and the buddies that are held close to the heart... Thank you greatly for your service!

I always had great respect for those who served in Vietnam. I've worked with some vets and heard their stories. I remember as a kid watching the evening news and hearing about the casualties, ect.

Thank you for your service, sir, in Vietnam. And to all our veterans who have served in wars. I loved the story you wrote and acted in. I felt all your emotions overwhelming with a touch of many colors. All have men and women have their stories. May we all remember all with reverence and hopefully one day have no need for more wars. 🙏 ❤ My brother was on the USS Liberty Navel Ship, 1967, 6 day war. He was older than me, but how I adored him. He came home and never was the same man again. He cracked up and was shattered until he was shoved into another oncoming vehicle that pushed him into another oncoming car. My brother was killed instantly, the two others in the other vehicle was badly harmed. The driver of the truck who caused the damage was never found. This happened on July 2, 1983.. May we all also remember the American navel men who perrished on that ship and those that survived and even those that lived who now has gone and those that are left and their families. I think of them always as I honor all our veterans. America history and world histories. With the deepest appreciation and respect for yours. 🙏❤

Excellent! Thank you for your service, sir. I never served in the military narrowly missing Vietnam by a scant six months or so as the draft ended but I am drawn to all Vietnam era documentaries. I want to learn and experience through the eyes and the stories of those who served. Many thanks again for this piece and for those that collaborated with you.

07/11/2023 . Nearly 70 yr old US Army vet from Ohio . I volunteered for the draft 01/20/1972 because I wanted to join but did not want to commit more than 2 yrs active into an unknown . They sent me to Fort Jackson for a 12 week basic 😂 then Germany . Thank You for this vidio . I understood exactly what you were expressing. I latter spent 4 yrs inactive reserve & 13 Army Nat Gaurd . Persion Gulf veteran .

That was some amazing writing,the truth behind his words are powerful. He touched on the real depth of the feeling of an infinity men

God Bless You! Thank You for being a Patriot

I spent zero week in Ft Jackson, basic at Ft Gordon, AIT at Ft Lee and Viet Nam Jan 1969. A year I will never forget.

I believe this is the best Vietnam Documentary I’ve watched. I watch all the time about Vietnam. Upmost respect for this man and all who served there. Great documentary soldier!

Wow! What a terrific story teller! Heart warming, fun, inspiring!

Outstanding… kept my interest through the whole presentation. Lots of memories and emotion came back which I haven’t had in over 50 long and sometimes short years. Thank you.

Amazing, I’m still trying to find photos of my grandpa and uncle who served in the war. It has been difficult to find. Thank you for your service!

This gent did some theatre acting along the way . Well done

Thank you for your service. Beautifully told. Well done

A WASTE OF LIFE AND MONEY BUT YOU GUYS SHOULD BE PROUD YOU LISTENED TO YOUR COUNTRIES CALL AND GAVE IT ALL I SALUTE YOU

Thank you for your service. I live in Harlem, Georgia, just outside of Fort Gordon. I loved your story.

Thank you for your service Sir. Bless you.

Thank you for a lifetime of service to our great country. Florio's eh? My wife is taking me to New York this year for my first time. She was visiting New York on 9/11. I was on a machine gun range at Camp Lejeune while she was on the battle field in New York that day. And make no mistake, New York city was a battle field that day. She's seen tragedy as have I following 9/11. She still tears up when she talks about it. Some tears of sorrow but some are tears of pride. Proud how a city as big as New York, with how fast it moves, no time to talk, the crime and the violence we're all aware of, stopped all that shit in a time of crisis. Perfect strangers walking ground zero trying to get to the survivors. People on the street walking out to assist the people fleeing, who had made it out of there by the skin of their teeth. Homes opening to people they had never met, but they needed help. she fell in love with the United States because of the compassion she saw in New York City on 9/11 as a result of what some crazy religious fanatic had done to us. My wife was visiting from Japan then. I didn't know her yet, I was just a kid trying to look tough in a Marine uniform. She decided this is where she wanted to live. I met her some years after my tour in Iraq. She saved me from myself many times over. Anyways, Florio's Ristorante! We will be stopping in to eat there on our trip. thank you for the tip! And God Bless you sir! Semper Fi

Thank you for your service sir

Thanks for sharing your story. Your remembrances are spoken so honestly and compassionately….Randy (3 tour Nam vet)

This'll be good. Love watching anything to do with Nam. Heavy, heavy conflict.

Responsible man of all times

Thank you sir for your service and thanks for sharing this God bless

Excellent Presentation! Agree about the waste of loss of lives 🙏🏽❤️

Very Very good!!!!!!

Well talked your words are very good enough

What a great perspective.

Amazing!!!

I like this guy. And a fairly good job with the Southern accent too.

BRAVO...❤

Thank you sir!

My wife is Vietnamese.....and was 12 years old when Saigon fell in 75. She worships all Vietnam Veterans and despises her former county for begging America to send her sons to die for an ungrateful people. Her uncles were all officers in the South Vietnamese Army, Navy and Air Force. Those who survived paid heavy with ten year prison sentences in jungle camps and permanent banishment from living in cities. Thank you and every veteran for sacrificing so much for so little in return 🙏🙏

good vedios

Good to see they acknowledged the south Vietnamese AND the Australians; America forgets at times that the Aussies have fought side by side with American from WW1 onwards

Thanks. Vietnam 67-68

I missed to war by 1 year. My mother always worried about me having to go. Many of my friends went into the guard or college. Then it was over.

My father was with the 2nd /503rd 173rd Airborne Vietnam 1965 to 1966 .

We lost the Vietnam war because Lyndon Johnson was the top general.

Our military men and women are the first in line to fight for America and its citizens, but someone ends up at the end of the line for everything else. It makes me sick about how they are treated!!

🇺🇲"God Bless Our Veterans and Active Warrior's!!!"🇺🇲 🫡

I could listen to this man all day very interesting and has me captivated well played sir nothing but the highest respect

Man this was too funnys

V shred is a beast buy his product

What camera was used during the war?

Pointless loss of men & waste of money. Same as Afghanistan, same as Iraq, and next up Ukraine.. Pointless

To all the military veterans from USA and Allies having participated in Korean War and Vietnam War, thank you for your service for trying to contain the spread of the deadly and toxic Communism which remains an existential threat to individual freedom, human dignity, and basic decency worldwide even to these days. Commies are a stain on humanity! Perhaps just like the South Korean, the South Vietnamese feel forever grateful and indebted to the sacrifices of US and Allie troops during the eternal fight between good versus evil.

From NH n know Rutland VT.

Lmao, I’m at the point of him talking about going to the Black club, I’m cackling. He had a great time diddddnt he llmao

If the enemy had pressed the Tet offensive just another week, the entire US expeditionary force would have been at risk of not only defeat, but the possibility of being cut off and trapped in Vietnam. Some 600,000 Americans.

my dad was in Vietnam war

Ive always thought that General Westmoreland was THE wrong guy fir the job he sent out troops into NAM guns blazing WW2 style and thoses tactics wont work in a freaking jungle against unconventional enemies using gorilla tactics we were fighting Gorilla forces AND conventional Forces at the same time the Viet Cong and the NVA and then not takeing territory instead relying on the body count as a metric also us not pursuing the Vietcong into cambodia and laous full force disnt help either every time we would have the vietcong seemingly cornered they would just run deep into Cambodia or laous and resupply regroup allowing their hit and run tactics to be to that much more effective just my humble opinion ✌️🇺🇸 btw i spoke about this with my uncle who did 3 tours in NAM Army infantry i respect that man and ALL other Vietnam vets ALL American Vets for that matter ( I misspelled a few words in this post im just to lazy to go back through and correct them sorry for the errors)

I know his statements were ambiguous, but had JFK lived, his response might have been more nuanced. Much too many sons were lost!

10 plus years of government subsidized lunacy, on an industrial level...then get up and leave,,and the NVA go thru the ARVN about 7 miles an hour...And for a county so ripe with smart people,, this was really dumb..

effects of war, hence, personally this event is useless, suggestion::: let us sit n discuss the differences...Godbless!!!

America was a big slow 🐌 moving target🎯

Charlie Mopic is a movie based on a cameraman

The camera sound effects ruined this video

The War in Vietnam was a living hell on this earth. But most Veterans from the US Army haven't gotten enough fair treatment from the US citizens so far. They tried their best to maintain Vietnam's democracy but many thoughtless Americans used to criticize Veterans in the Vietnam War. That's unfair. All Veterans in the US Army should be respected by the US citizens unconditionally since they devoted their precious lives to protect the value of Democracy. Americans should focus on the point. Defenders should be respected by normal citizens and that should become a principle of human societies no matter what.

At Anthony Ryan what is to funnys

Yang sebenarnya amerika kalah perang sama vietnam.. Banyak ratusan perwira militer amerika mati d peperangan.. Apalagi prajuritnya. Amerika gak kuat lawan gerilya vietnam.. Hanya di film aja menang perang boong bongan.

Both Forces had agreed to a ceasefire TET was an underhanded assault.

America disgraced these brave men.

Có ai dịch phụ đề tiếng việt dùm không? 😂

He likes hearing himself.... SAD! USN RET

"Through the lens of a camera"? Hardly so. This is more about this presenter than the war and those who served.

What have we got here? A f*cking comedian. Private Joker!

Quite the ego.

The American never learned the lesson.

To all US Vietnam Vet. You should blame that on your parents and grandparents and all those fellow Americans of yours who voted for Democrats President Truman, JF Kennedy, and LB Johnson as United States commander in Chief. Because they were one who brought communist to Vietnam and started the Vietnam War. US Democracts President Truman was the 1st US President who got Americans involve in Vietnam when he sent the 1st US MAAG to assist the French to recolonize Vietnam in 1950. Then US Democrats President JF Kennedy stage a military coup on South Vietnam President, Ngo Dinh Diem giving America power to start a War and to do what ever they wish to Vietnam and its Vietnamese peoples. And appoint an ex-Vietminh soldiers, Nguyen Van Thieu as their puppet President of South Vietnam to replace Ngo Dinh Diem after the military coup assination on Nov. 2, 1963. The following year on August 4, 1964. US Democrats President LB Johnson announce to the American peoples about the Gulf of Tonkin incident. Where a US Destroyer Maddox was patroiling at sea past the 17th parallel DMZ near the capital of communist North Vietnam, Hanoi which allege to be attack by North Vietnamese PT boats. That didn't happen according to John White a nuclear weapon officier on the US Destroyer Maddox. Without the South Vietnamese President declare military action or War on North Vietnam. US Democrats President LB Johnson push for military action against North Vietnam which lead to the start of the Vietnam War. American peoples did this to Vietnam and all the 58,000 US killed during the Vietnam by electing Truman, JF Kennedy and LB Johnson as their US Commaner in Chief. America brought War, death, and pain to the Vietnamese peoples of Vietnam. 3,000,000 innocents Vietnamese civilian had to die in their own country. While 10s of thousands Vietnamese die at sea of hunger, thirst, and illness as refugee. All those US President were all US War Vets.

This not good

You know during the Vietnam War there were a lot case of US ground troops commit a lot of attrocities toward many South Vietnamese villagers during their "Search and Destroy Mission." Many were never reported and a lot was being covered up by US General William Childs Westmoreland. There were many US ground troops saw the attrocities done by their fellow American troops and did nothing. While other participate. Vietnamese peoples were the victim of the Vietnam War. Even though many Vietnamese didn't start the War and didn't ask for it. That was the decision by the American peoples who voted for Democrats President JF Kennedy and LB Johnson as their Commander in Chief for their country. And Democrats President Truman who brought Communist support to Vietnam by allowing and supporting France to reclaim Vietnam as their colony. A country who value their freedom and independence from England. Deny other country of their own. America has never a democracy country. America is a Republic.

Get to the point

During the Vietnam War there were a lot case of US ground troops commit a lot of attrocities toward many South Vietnamese villagers during their "Search and Destroy Mission." Many were never reported and a lot was being covered up by US General William Childs Westmoreland. There were many US ground troops saw the attrocities done by their fellow American troops and did nothing. While other participate. Vietnamese peoples were the victim of the Vietnam War.

And Democrats President Truman who brought Communist support to Vietnam by allowing and supporting France to reclaim Vietnam as their colony. A country who value their freedom and independence from England. Deny other country of their own. America was never a democracy country. America is a Republic.

American peoples in America didn't protest when Truman and JF Kennedy was President. Because these two US Presidents got America involve in Vietnam. Before US President Truman sent US MAAG to Vietnam none of the Vietnamese knew anything about America. Majority of Vietnamese in Vietnam just want to be left alone until the French sent their French Warship to Vietnam on Nov. 23, 1946 and bomb the city of Haiphong killing 6,000 local Vietnamese and anger an entire country. US President Trumam could've step in and told France government that they can't be doing that to Vietnam. But instead he allow France to re-colonize Vietnam and disregard a letter of support for Vietnam Independence from France from Ho Chi Minh. Which cause Ho Chi Minh to seek support from communist Soviet Union and China. This is how and why Vietnam became a communist country today. Just to let you know and all American Vietnam Viet. knows. That majority of Vietnamese in Vietnam from both North and South did Not want to go to War and kill against one or another over the idea of communist or democracy. Why both leaders from North and South Vietnam couldn't rally enough support for War against one or the other. Even though both government believe that Vietnam should not be divided. Until US President JF Kennedy stage a military coup assination on a Catholic South Vietnamese president, Ngo Dinh Diem on Nov. 3, 1963 and appointed their puppet ex-Vietminh soldier, Nguyễn Văn Thiệu as President of South Vietnam. After military coup assination on a Catholic South Vietnamese president, Ngo Dinh Diem, giving America all right of control of Vietnam and its Vietnamese peoples. Why US President LB Johnson started the Vietnam War and call it US Military action over the Gulf of Tonkin incident 1964. Which involve a US Destroyer Maddox was patrol past the 17th Parallel near the capital of North Vietnam, Hanoi. While assist the South Vietnamese army against the North Vietnamese. 40% of Blacks male was sent to fight in Vietnam, along with all the 18yr old white male High School drop out, non college white males, convicts, and all their problem was sent to fight in Vietnam. During the entire Vietnam War, America not once launch a full US ground invasion of North Vietnam fear it might become like the Korean War. With Communist China sending nonstop 100's of thousands Chinese troops against US troops and the threat of a thermal nuclear War with the Soviet Union. The Vietnamese are the victims of the Vietnam War. Their home was bomb burn by US military during their Search and Destroyed mission. While their forest and rivers was spray by US biological chemical, Agent Orange, which many young South Vietnamese childrens who born in that area are being infected with it even today. At the end, America withdrawl their military troops back home and have No remores to what they did to the Vietnamese peoples. 3,000,000 had to die in their country during the War and while ten of thousands of Vietnamese died at sea as refugee from hunger, disease, Thai pirates, and Chinese warship. For those who made to America in 1975 had to deal with discimination, racist, and blame for the War and the lives 58,000 US killed during the Vietnam. Not once Americans never blame themselve for electing Truman, JF Kennedy, and LB Johnson as their commander in chief of their country. The Vietmamese are the real victim of the Vietnam.

Nobody didn’t think them for there service when they come they spit on the and called them baby killers we had no business over there
