I do not know if America should or should not have been in Vietnam I was not really old enough to understand the full implications but those few bad apples who were in the end supported by the Government made America look bad. But America rebuilt it's reputation back over the years and it will again America under new management with new perspectives on the world will soon change views and should provide us all with Hope rather than fear once more steve I have noticed a seed change on how the rest of the world views America in just a short few years and it is scary, the only thing I can say is I am old enough to remember the Vietnam War and the pictures that went round the world of One Platoon in Vietnam causing the world to revile America ( not right in my Opinion ) those few marines were not representative of all US soldiers .
