There are still MIA's.
No.
yes.
Today? Any other communist country.
outof the 2434 prisoners captured and killed in the three death marches, 1787 were Australian. The remaining 641 were British. Only the six Australians who escaped from the Sandakan Death March survived
The Viet war was fought against COMMUNISM and against the country of North Vietnam which was a communist nation. The on-going wars of today are not against any particular country (nation) nor against any particular ideals (such as communism, etc.). The wars of today consist of eliminating dictators & terrorists.
The known POW's from the Hanoi Hilton complex left around 1973. There are several hundred missing, and it's not known if any of the missing are still alive.
The media in Vietnam was drawn to photography depicting action. Ask any video game player today...action sells!
Well in my opinion, prisoners gave up their rights when they took someone else's away. What happened to the inmates' victims rights? Prisoners are treated better then Vietnam vets that have to live on the streets. Who cares about the rights of prisoners, they shouldn't have any. Why should the law work to help the prisoners always?
At the end of the Vietnam War, Congress refused to support South Vietnam any longer.
No
It was in the papers and TV; the same as any event, even today...until they got drafted!
Yes
