History In Words and Pictures
Welcome to my memorial webpage to the brave men and women who fought and died in the Vietnam war. This is is one of the only war that has has such a dramatic impact on all areas of American life, culture, and politics.
"No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now." - Richard M. Nixon.
This quote stands true today, since the early 1980's most people viewed the Vietnam war as a hiccup in American history, people were learning the war from TV and movies such as Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, and Hamburger Hill. Although entertaining, these movies portray Vietnam in the way the creator wanted you to see them, often thinking behavior such as that was common place during the Vietnam conflict. I have tried to make this site as historically accurate as possible, a lot of the information I have recycled from an old website I owned. I have been compiling this information over the last seven year, making this site larger with pictures and information. If you have any question, please email me and I will answer them to the best of my ability or lead you to someone who may be of service.
