  • Mr. Flint'sHistory Class
  • Today we are going to hear Jacob's presentation.
  • Current EventsPresentations
  • Today is a sad day...The U.S. has began combat in the Vietnam War.
  • March 9th. 1965
  • The first U.S. troops have landed in China Beach. 
  • Oh no!
  • I think my brother is in that group.
  • To Fight Communism!
  • That's why I'm joining the Army.
  • Richard did you hear? The U.S. is joined in the Vietnam War yesterday.
  • 3,500 soldiers were sent to help the Saigon Government fight Communism
  • Yes, I heard the Marines landed north of Da Nang.
  • President Lyndon Johnson must have decided it was time to join the conflict.
  • I saw it coming, after Congress passed the Tonkin Resolution last year.
  • It gave him power to take "all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the United States and prevent further agression.
  • I know they North Vietnam and the Viet Cong had been fighting South Vietnam for many years.
  • But their problems began in the 1800s during the French colonial period.
  • It's time we kicked the communist out of there!
  • I wish we did not have to fight but we are going to have to. Especially since we are both joining the Army after graduation.
  • There protesting on college campuses, in front of government buildings, even boxer Muahmmad Ali is resisting the draft. I just don't understand.
  • I don't understand why all the protest. Do they want communism to win?
  • Boot Camp is hard. We just finished the first 8 weeks at Tiger Ridge Camp and today we arrived at North Fort Polk for the last eight weeks.
  • This is where we are going to learn about booby traps, Charlie, and how to fight this war before we are sent to Vietnam.
  • The Army has become like a family. Our division is always together, eating the same rations, and enduring the heat, humidity, bugs, and itches.
  • We carry around more than 60lbs of gear, water, ammunition, and even more if you have to carry radio equipment or the machine guns.
  • We know the meaning of leadership and we are always concerned about each others safety. We lost two men last week and it was like losing our brothers.
  • I take care of wounded men every day. I have seen very young men die in front of me. I've seen the worst wounds I have ever expected to see: torn limbs, open skulls, blown torsos.
  • I never expected the war to be like this. I thought we were fighting for freedom, I don't know what we are fighting for anymore.
  • We were attacked today, November 17th, 1965 by the North Vietnamese Regiment near Plei Mei. We didn't get reinforcements and when the fight ended 60% of our men were dead.
  • I made it out of the battle. I'm still here, I will keep fighting. I'm so tired but I won't give up.
  • March 23rd,1973
  • A coordinated attack of more than 100 sites in South Vietnam and the beginning of the end of American involvement in the Vietnam War.
  • Tet Offensive, January 1968
  • You're friend got badly hurt in Khe Sanh. We saved his life but he has a long recovery ahead of him.
  • We're sending him back to America to recover, only time will tell.
  • So what's going to happen to him now?
  • I know Mom, I'm glad it's finally over. After 5 years of being back home I still don't feel like my self.
  • Chris, the last U.S. troops withdrew from Vietnam, President Nixon declared the war is over.
  • My body healed but I am sad all the time. Everything reminds me of the horrible experiences I had in Vietnam.
  • The doctor's say you have PTSD and it might be a long time before you feel like yourself again.
  • My friend Richard is back from the war and it helps to talk to him about everything that happend.
  • I understand Chris, and I know you are doing your best. I just wish it was easier for you.
  • But after more than 50,000 Americans killed or missing, and many more wounded, it's hard to make sense of it all.
  • I'm glad that he returned safe and sound.
  • After 47 years, Chris and Richard are still friends today. They don't talk about the war any more but they still remember.The End
