In the over 30 yrs that have passed since the Vietnam war has ended have your views changed why or why not if so how do you view the war from your current prospective?

"Ours is not to question why, ours is just to do and die." Cavalrymen from the charge of the light brigade at Balaklava during the Crimean War in 1854. Good fighting men keep their opinions to themselves (or amongst their brothers in arms); and AVOID POLITICS! The Vietnam War was no different than the US Civil War or the charge of the light brigade; his view didn't count...the war raged with or without a man's particular opinion; so just do your job!


Japan defeated Russia in the Russo-Japanese War?

Japan definitely won at sea; destroying 2 out of 3 Russian battleship fleets. But it should be said that the Russian battleship fleet under the command of Admiral Z. Rozhestvensky, conducted a charge into Admiral Togo's battleline in the same manner as did the British Charge of their Light Brigade in 1854 at Balaklava, during the Crimean War. At least Rozhestvensky charged, instead of turning their tails to the enemy...as two fleets would later do in a later war. On land, Japan was feeling the strain, running low on both manpower and funds. On land, Russia was in it's element, and it was only time that Russia needed to gain the strength needed to win. But Revolution at home also took it's toll on the Russians, and Japan & Russia both called it quits, Russia accepting a Japanese victory.
