I'm sorry if this isn't the right place, but i thought it would because it pertains to the war that america was in, you know. yeah.
The North Vietnamese were the greater fighting force at that given time.. The United State Retreated from the American Embassy Tuesday, April 29, 1975 Hochiminh City.. 1973 The US ended its military involvement and removed its last ground troops from Vietnam but the war continued. 1975 Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam, fell to the Communists. North Vietnam won the war. Thousands of Vietnamese including many "boat people" began fleeing the country. THE SOCIALIST REPUBLIC OF VIETNAM 1976 Vietnam was unified as the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Saigon was renamed Ho Chi Minh City. As the communists pushed further forward the South Vietnamese Army retreated along Highway 1 with some soldiers walking until they were picked up and others who were too badly wounded had to stay where they were until rescued.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O656sHKWrEo&feature=channel"]YouTube - Vietnam Highway 1 Retreat
What exactly made you cry? I mean, you have no connection to these people; certain things about your posts suggest to me you are young, in your 20s at the oldest; which would give you no connection to these events. There is genocide happening in Africa. There are innocent men on death row. There is a country whose number one commodity is sex slaves. The keyboard you typed this on was likely made by 10 year olds in China working for rice. Yet, this scene is what makes you cry? Call me Holden Caulfield but I sniffs me a phony.
I agree, she is living in the past man, way in the past. Anyway I felt like I wasted four minutes of my life watching that.
