I lost 38 friends and guys i grew up with and knew and served with in my hometown during Vietnam and the Majority of them served in the Army. The Army was afraid to send my friends in combat because of afraid of losing them. |
Politicians and an unwilling nation spent the blood of 38 of your friends and were unwilling to let you do what it would take to win. They failed, you didn't. Don't blame or get pissed at me for pointing it out.
It seems that every time we have decisive victories and are then left to occupy a country we slowly let it slip back into the hands of our enemies. Why? Because the political failures we have as leaders will not allow us to do what it takes to win.
