  1.  @extremel.z.s3140  Strictly 20 rounds only. The only times 30 round mags were used were for experimental purposes and saw rare use in combat. Plus you can look at all the Nam footage and see 0 30 round mags on M16A1s.

  2. Pls stop covering well known events. Like a literal movie was made about the event that a lot of people watched.

  3. @TheCookie69  If the film got two awards and made double the production value, then a lot of people in the early 2000s are going to know the film. I feel that it is better to cover lesser known major events in the world, such as the uprisings in the Eastern Bloc during the Cold War or the Battle of Wanat. Battle of Wanat dictated the nature of conflict in Afghanistan. I just see that posting stuff about popular historical topics is a cashgrab and doesn't add anything new to the table in a digestible manner. I think the Rawanda video, Fallujah, and Rhodesia was a much better topic selection due to lack of general media presence.

  4. @profinneupane6883  that's not the point of my statement though. And Mark Bowden's book does exsist and the fact that the event happened at all is embarrassing. The point of the statement is to focus on other topics that weren't already covered a lot by mainstream media.

  11. ​ @claydogg234 no, the U.S. should've gotten Afghanistan to have a national identity that people actually want to follow.

  12. ​ @joeswanson5486 what was part of that trillion spent? Was it totaling for the value of equipment sent? It also counts the value of the old M16A2 rifles sent.

  15. @Clippidyclappidy  no, it is not. You take memes for fact. Statistically the U.S. kills more Vietnamese and sent them packing into the tunnels. This is fact. What is also fact was that regardless of the casualties, Northern resolve and the propaganda machine kept the rural areas of Vietnam kn their side along with massive aid dumping by the PRC and USSR.

  16.  @patrickjennings7362  we didn't fund the ARVN after 1973

  17.  @Jay-jb2vr  Not really because Vietnam is basically a colony of America right now as they produce goods for Americans at a low cost whilst begging the Americans for aid against China in the 21st Century.

  19. @anhvutuan535  I can respond with a single book called Hue, 1968 By Mark Bowden. The guy interviewed several planners of the Tet Offensive. It was meant to spark a revolution. Not send a message. The other statements regarding how the Tet Offensive was made to question the if the U.S. could win came from western media. Not the NVA nor PAVN.

  20. Only 3.5k coalition deaths and that is fairly low.

  23.  @hoanghai5195  Man your incompetence levels are through the roof, the US didn't invade North Vietnam because of Paris peace talks and the NVA sent Crack units to bypass the treaties.

  27.  @lengocbaothinh2553  explain how 3rd tank battalion survived the night being held by the buckle without infantry support. Tanks are useless without infantry support yet survived.

  28.  @lengocbaothinh2553  Fire Support Base Illingworth in Tay Ninh province, South Vietnam on Apr. 1, 1970. The perimeter is overun and hand to hand combat is initiated and the US came out on top.

  29.  @lengocbaothinh2553  not to mention An Loc in which the south were against T54's and came out on top and Hamburger Hill in which a fortified enemy became immune to airstrikes thanks to being dug in so much won the battle still.

  30. @ronin6100  no, it was for stabilization. Obama announced the 2016 withdrawal until it was canceled due to a taliban resurgence causing instability.

  31. @dakota2327  they got unlucky, considering many servicemembers haven't fought.

  32. @bradsanders407  well then, explain the civil war that was ongoing literally before the U.S. conflict. The U.S. invasion of Afghanistan is an intervention to support the Northern Alliance.

  33.  @parsa6526  not all as the US history book was written by a german from ww2 that fought for the reich. Napoleon is a good example too.

  46.  @malakatan3235  Iraqis actually wanted the US to invade, it's just that we set up a government ran by a Islamic Minority.

  47.  @oaples8790  My point is, Iraq isn't a failed state and is becoming a successful country. Tell me when was the last major battle in Iraq and tell me how much Teritory is in governmental control in 2019. Also, ISIS is gone right now in Iraq, but not in some parts of Africa and the Philippines, well the Fillipinos are doing a number on ISIS right now and French Foregin Legion doing combat in Africa.

  49. In my opinion do Operation Linebacker 3 which is to do a mass bombing campaign and ground deployment to retake the majority of the country again to get everyone out and let the ANA manage the country while the UN evacuates.
