Highest ranking African American is Aaron smells like butt.

Complications (legends, rumors, etc.) and time have clouded the truth about a 15 year US Marine KIA during the war. 5 sixteen year olds, 12 seventeen year olds, 120 foreign born, 25,000 men under the age of 20, 17,000 married men, and one 62 year old man died in the Vietnam War.

997 men died on their first day in country and 1,448 men died on their last day in Vietnam.

This could be a question open to debate. Some will say the most important soldier was the common infantryman, afterall he was the one who did the fighting and digging. Others will say it was a good general who knew military tactics. Julius Caesar considered his centurions the most important because they were on the front lines and knew the strength and temperaments of the troops. In fact, he was criticized for having centurions present at battle planning meetings and listening to their input.

SSGT is a military rank in the US Air Force that means Staff Sergeant.

In the US Air Force, it is used to signify an individual in the pay grade of E-5.

In the Army and Marine Corp, the same name and abbreviation are used, but in this case, they signify someone in the pay grade of E-6.

In the war of 1812 U.S. went to war with Great Britain.

The most dangerous weapon in the Roman army was the Roman soldier. He was not only well armed with the sword, knife, several javelins and his shield, but he could think. He knew when to thrust with the sword, push with the shield and in which direction to turn both for protection and aggression. This was all part of his training and it made him more dangerous to the enemy than all the artillery in the legion.

Ray Novak is the Chief of Staff in Canada. He became Chief of Staff in 2013. The chief of staff serves for 2 years.

The American involvement started in 1964 (Pres Johnson) and ended in 1973. Vietnam united and the whole country beacame Communist. The USA lost, ie. they could not prevent the spread of communism.

"NO FLY ZONES" were enforced during that time period. Any Iraqi aircraft flying in those restricted areas was subject to being shot down.

The President of the United States is the Commander in Chief of all US Armed Forces.

I don't think so. My experience in Viet Nam we only had the M151 series jeep. There was the initial M151 then the M151A1 and eventually the M151A2. I maintained this series of Jeep until the active Army decided to go to the current 991 series HUMMV. I do miss the jeep, even after 20 years of being retired!

Ho Chi Minh Was a good leader because At the Party Congress at Tours on Christmas Day, 1920, Ho Chi Minh sided with the Communist wing of the party since the Communists advocated immediate independence for all colonial areas. Vietnamese did not have to be Communist to join the fight against the French, and the ranks of the Viet Minh swelled with patriotic volunteers. He had certainly led his native Communist Party through almost 40 years of success, creating a state where none had existed before and devising a Communist government to run it. As a young Communist functionary, he avoided Stalin's great purges of the 1920s and 30s. As a mature Communist leader, he steered a middle course between the Russians and Chinese in their great schism, offending neither and retaining the support of both. In sum, Ho Chi Minh was that great contradiction: a dedicated Communist who was also a fervent nationalist. Throughout his life he never lost sight of his goal of an independent Vietnamese state, and even as a Communist leader he pursued an essentially Vietnamese course, even when pure Communist theory might have dictated other choices.

SP4 is a Specialist, E-4, which is one step (rank) above a PFC, Private 1st class, E-3 and one step (rank) below a Sergeant, Sgt., E-5. A Private is an E-1 which is the rank most soldiers get out of boot camp. I still believe that this basic rank structure is the same as it was when I was in the Army 35 years ago. I don't know if the rank of Corporal is still used as it was or is an E-4 or at least a rank above a PFC. A Sgt., E-5 is usually a squad leader but depending on the staffing or circumstances could act as a platoon Sgt. This position is usually held by an E-6 and sometimes an E-7. The head NCO, Non-Commisioned Officer of an Army Company, is usually an E-8 which is a 1st Sergeant. The 'top dog' NCO in a battalion or Unit is the Command Sergeant Major. I think I got it right.

There are currently 40 active duty officers of 4 star rank (generals & admirals) in U.S. Forces. There appear to be well over 200 living retired 4 star generals.

From Spring of 69, HHC 34th Engineer Group was in Binh Thuy in the Mekong Delta. About 3 miles from Can Tho - the biggest city in the Delta.

That title first became official in 1821 with Major General Jacob Brown assuming the post. Prior to that time the position was called United States Army Senior Officer. General George Washington's official title was Continental Army General and Commander in Chief. Major General Henry Knox suceeded Washington with the simple title of Senior Officer.

Major John Doughty was the first to serve as the United States Army Senior Offocer from 20 June 1784 until 12 August 1784 when all of the Army was discharged except for 80 men.

He joined the army in 1958 right after his mother died.

That question might have been asked by a recruiter or in a local tavern and is only intended to stir up a brawl. The US Fleet has strategic weapons designed to vaporise cities, countries and continents that the Army lacks. The Navy and Marine Corps Fighter Squadons would tip the balance over Army Helicopters and sheer numbers. Balistic missles provide a bigger bang then MLRS and artillery. The Navy, Marines and Air Force are not intended to hold terrain; that's why the Army exists. Each branch of the military has its mission and is trained to complete their task. Part of that training is teamwork. As a US soldier, I recall assisting Marines in repairing their combat equipment. Air Force bases were often protected by Soldiers and Marines as they were trained in ground warfare. A Navy base usually has a Marine unit to secure the base. Most Soldiers and Marines get along very well, one Marine when asked why stated "We eat the same dirt!"

"Special ops unit" is a very fluid term, and special ops is a broad category.. on top of the actual units of operators themselves, there's also things such as Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations battalions, military intelligence units, etc. A "special ops unit" could be anything from a Special Forces A-team divided into two groups of six, all the way up to an entire Ranger Regiment of three line battalions.
