I have several uncles that served in viet nam, one told me a story, one of many really, anyway he was stationed somewhere near the meikong river and was dating some little chick in a nearby village, he was out for about 3-4 weeks on patrol doing recon, and after getting back he ate some LSD, smoked some dope and started off toward the village, he got a km away and someone stopped him and told him to go back, he didnt listen, when he got to the village everyone had been slaughtered, most of them had been hung on poles as a warning against fraternizing with the GIs, he said the whole village was killed including the children, he says that's the turning point in the war for him, his first tour just 6 mos in, he served 4 tours before being sent home
Holy what the fuck, a scenario like that is morbid enough... but on LSD? 
Has he ever fully recovered mentally from that?

Agent Orange was dropped on the vegatation to kill it and cause the kong to be exposed.
It also caused massive amounts of horrific birth defects, which are being seen today.
I'm dating a viet girl. Have been for over two years. She's fucking sexy.

My dad was a Colonel in the Air force and got called up a few times in emergencies during those times. Of course, he never made it past the Philippines before they called him back, but we were very worried about him. But I remember as a small child watching the evening news and everyday there'd be a story about Viet Nam. Scary stuff, especially for a small child. It was a brutal, vicious and really unnecessary war.

You should do some real research about The Vietnam War, sunset. It's crazy. The pentagon papers admitted that 70% of the reason we were in Vietnam was to stop an embarrassing defeat for the USA. Soooo much crazy shit and lives lost for nothing. Drop acid, not bombs.
