Why was it wrong?An actual reporting of actions taken by Tiger Force was a task force of the United States Army, 1st Battalion (Airborne), 327th Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade (Separate), 101st Airborne Division, which fought in the Vietnam War.[1]
The platoon-sized unit, approximately 45 [[paratroopers],] was founded by Colonel David Hackworth in November 1965 to "outguerrilla the guerrillas".
Tiger Force - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
NOTE operative number is 45 soldiers.
At the height of the war there were approximately 500,000 US Marines, soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Coast Guardsmen in Vietnam.
For the sake of the "TRUTH" about less then 1/10th of 1 percent of the US Military presence...
Kerry's TRUTH and "ALL THE TIME" intonation and everyone does it totally put the entire military at risk!
There is a time for truth no question, BUT an even better way of minimizing "collateral damage" in telling it!
Why didn't Kerry have closed hearings at the least? Because when he testified it was for the PUBLICITY!!! NOT the TRUTH!!!
My attitude about Kerry is he is a dumb f...k!
Any person who doesn't account for fall out as he obviously did why else did he go forward, is truly a dumb f..k because at some point,
maybe 30 years later... ANIMOSITY, DISTRUST, and definitely DISLIKE will again raise and Kerry will have to overcome that!
For that Congress is stupid to approve him because of his collateral damage of his disloyalty to his fellow soldiers!
Vietnam was very wrong.
And this country should never hide it's wrong doing.
Tell me do you pay your rent/mortgage payments/credit/card etc. agreements? If you don't want happens?
See people like you criticize the USA for keeping THEIR agreements.. i.e. Vietnam was part of SouthEast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO).
Like NATO the USA agreed to come militarily to the aid of any SEATO member... Vietnam/France was just that and CHINA invaded Vietnam thus SEATO was asked to throw back China...
So the USA KEEPING agreements like SEATO sent troops!
NOW idiots like YOU that DEPEND solely on the BIASED MSM believed all that garbage about USA losing in VIETNAM!
NOT true then as it was NOT true "Harry Reid "War is lost"... in Iraq!
But people like you that solely depend on MSM that has since VIETNAM totally did everything possible to destroy USA believe that !
So again.. the USA keeping the 1991 Cease Fire, Keeping SEATO in Vietnam, Keeping NATO in Korea, winning WWI, WWII.. the USA keeps
it's agreements!
If YOU don't want MORE of such agreements.. tell Kerry/Obama to withdraw from NATO, and countries where we are located and renege on the agreements!!
Oh....you were there?
My husband was...he never saw any of these things, and he was in a VERY active area! I'm not saying it never happened, these atrocities happen in every war. But Kerry made it sound like it was going on continuously with most of the troops and that's a lie! Just like the military in Iraq that abused some prisoners, the majority of military would never do such a thing, but you'll always have the mis-fits. Kerry made the entire military look like terrorists and i'm ashamed that our Govt now put him in a place of power over them! What idiots!!!
There were over 2 million Vietnamese killed by American actions in Vietnam.
They did not die nicely.
And while we got back the majority of our POWs. The Vietnamese..did not.
Tissue?
Gosh! People actually get killed in wars! Imagine that!
"And while we got back the majority of our POWs. The Vietnamese..did not"
Anyone who would bother to actually check would note that the few POWs who were returned were mostly air crew members captured far from fighting on the ground. The reason for that is simple: the NVA/VC rarely took prisoners. When they overran a unit they normally slaughtered our wounded who could no longer defend themselves. Tell me some more about how brutal GIs were.
John Kerry's motto: "I have never met a tyrannical, dictatorial government in my travels that I couldn't bring myself to surrender my country to"
If done in WWII, Mr Kerry would have been stood up against a wall and shot for his actions in Vietnam. In Obama's America, he was made Secretary of State instead. Obama's "Fundamental Transformation Of America" continues unabated. Next stop, banana republic status and serfdom for its citizens, that is provided Obama doesn't choose to surrender America to Sharia Law and the Worldwide Islamic Caliphate. If that be the case, America's males won't have to worry being serfs. Islam has its own special technique for dealing with infidel males.

What part of Vietnam border's the US?
And when did they invade?
Feel free. Take your time.
Because by our VERY OWN CONSTITUTION, Vietnam was wrong.
Consider the handicap Kerry as Secretary of State must overcome when dealing with countries like Iran, Israel, etc. when he pompously starts to issue statements about "terrorism" etc. these countries will laugh! They will point out how this pompous butt called HIS fellow troops in front of Congress no less lines like these..

"They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country.

And this Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."
concurring with his fellow senators who said:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D) "War is lost",
Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"
I guarantee that some time some where some "Gutsy" honest reporter may ask Kerry or Kerry may be asked by some head of state, whatever,
"is it true US troops cut off heads, ears, poisoned food... " Is that true?
Some SOB of a SoS!!!
It's all true.
May be true in some cases.. I don't know.

You saying that didn't happen?
I have friends that were veterans of Vietnam that talked about those very things. Including "ear necklaces"..

Idiotic. Just what part of the Constitution forbids us for aiding an ally being invaded by a foriegn aggressor?
What part of Japan, Germany, or Korea borders the US?

To exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the legislature of the state in which the same shall be, for the erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dockyards, and other needful buildings;--And
To make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof.

You don't seem to know very much about Vietnam. Or the "reasons" for getting involved. Starting with the fact the US broke most of it's agreements with North Vietnam. Including allowing a general election to take place.

HE SAID all of that... copy this quote.."
Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children." If you TERRORIZE you are a "TERRORIST"!!!
"Without a question, we need to disarm Saddam. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime .... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction .... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...."Kerry , Jan. 23. 2003.

Agree 100%.
If you know something bad is happeneing and you do/say nothing about it, you're condoning it and allowing it to happen again.
Speaking up against crimes such as these takes great courage. Turning a blind eye is something cowards do.
"In 1967, the 18 soldiers of a platoon called Tiger Force committed war crimes on hundreds of innocent Vietnamese victims. The U.S. government consciously concealed those secrets, planning to keep the history forever hidden. Then, 36 years later, The Blade in Toledo, Ohio, uncovered the mysteries surrounding those hateful events. Roy Royhab, executive editor on the paper, recounts the process used to uncover the story.
The complete series ran in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, The Blade's sister paper. It appeared in some form in the Washington Post, Miami Herald, San Francisco Chronicle, Boston Globe, Chicago Tribune, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Knoxville News Sentinel, Arizona Daily Star and in other newspapers. But while Blade reporters were interviewed on National Public Radio, on the radio/TV program Democracy Now, and on British and Canadian radio and television stations, the series was ignored by American television networks.
That was until Seymour Hersh, who broke the story on the My Lai massacre more than 30 years ago, wrote a column in the Nov. 10 New Yorker questioning why the major networks had not picked up any of the Tiger Force stories.
After reading the Hersh piece, Peter Jennings sent a film crew from ABC World News Tonight to The Blade to interview reporters Sallah and Weiss. ABC also sent a crew to Vietnam to interview witnesses and survivors of Tiger Force atrocities and sent additional film crews to talk with Tiger Force veterans. The story was aired in two parts on World News Tonight, and on Nightline and became a subject of public dialogue. On Nov. 9, Philip Gailey, the St. Petersburg Times editor of editorials, wrote about The Blade's Tiger Force series. He concluded that most American soldiers served with honor and courage in Vietnam, and they did not commit war crimes. What Tiger Force soldiers did is an ugly story that many Americans don't want to hear. But when something goes this horribly wrong, we need to hear the truth, no matter how painful it is.
That is the point of The Blade's investigation."

Absolutely off subject since the militia was not called up nor was it sent to Vietnam
