I’ve collected various YouTube videos about the #VietnamWar for the last few years and pulled the best 40+ to share with you. Some are slide shows with pictures set to the music of the period, other authors used actual video footage. Hours worth of stuff. cherrieswriter.com/2018/07/04/m...

In the #Vietnamwar, 1st Cav Hunter/Killer teams scoured an area for the enemy. 2 LOH's flew low and slow, drawing enemy fire, and marking it with red smoke. Cobra Gunships then saturated the area with lethal fire. 1 LOH is shot down see what happened then? cherrieswriter.com/2016/11/08/t...

A fellow vet molded and painted this 24"x36" Screaming Eagle patch of the 101st Airborne. He gifted it to me on my 30th birthday and it has hung on my home office wall since. See what Hamburger Hill is like 43 yrs later. cherrieswriter.com/2014/11/06/r...

Another morning during the #vietnamwar when we were up and moving before the sun was up. All the open areas and helicopters made it difficult to sneak up on an enemy who knew which way we traveled. Here's one soldier's recollection of his patrols: cherrieswriter.com/2015/11/07/a...

Way back before "e-mail" and "Facetime" were invented, the most treasured gift military personnel received was mail – a letter from home. Soldiers in the #Vietnamwar were ecstatic when hearing from family, but sometimes, the news hurt. What was it like? bit.ly/4idm6eB

You’ve lost relationships, spent years of your lives in extreme conditions, years apart from kids you’ll never get back, and beaten your body in a way that people don’t understand. Then come home to a nation that doesn’t understand. To those who served! bit.ly/3CC8HMW
