A Tribute to Vietnam Veterans(Video below)
The war in Vietnam was one of the longest lasting and most debatable wars fought by the U.S. armed forces. The conflict began in 1957 and ended in 1975. The aim was to help South Vietnam prevent the spread of communism coming from the North Vietnamese. The U.S. involvement was originally meant to be minimal, but carried on to send more troops as the war dragged on.
Many U.S. soldiers who served in Vietnam lost their lives or perhaps suffered long term effects such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and illnesses due to being exposed to the carcinogenic Agent Orange. Unlike troops of other wars, Vietnam Veterans were treated disrespectfully and never given the Welcome Home tribute they rightfully deserved.
This tribute is meant to show respect to the brave men and women that were sent off to the war in Vietnam and other wars in our great nations history.
