The Fall of Saigon...The End

Think the movie Apocalypse Now (loved the scene with the Doors “The End”) did a great job capturing the lunacy of the war. For those who never served I don’t think they can comprehend FUBAR although the Afghanistan withdrawal might come close (with no accountability there either). Vietnam changed our country forever, it laid our soul on a skewer and that scar will exist forever. For those who are too young to have lived those times, your history lesson awaits if you watch the Ken Burns documentary on Vietnam. It provides a glimpse only but very worthwhile IMO.

Thanks Eddie
