I am 31 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: the only person left in the United States that actually 32 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: sits back and waits and listens and watches until I 33 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: have the facts before I comments on something I understand 34 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: in this social media day and age, everybody has to 35 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: be first. I don't have to be first. Johnson and Johnson. Oh, 36 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: there has been a call by the FDA to halt 37 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: the Johnson and Johnson vaccine blood clots.

We have an awesome show for 40 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: you today on The Jesse Kelly Show. But first, oh, 41 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: and don't forget we have in the last hour former 42 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: Air Force PJ. BK's joining us. I'm gonna ask him, 43 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: because he's been far to the left of me and 44 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: all the vaccine COVID stuff. I'm gonna ask him his 45 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: take on the vaccine stuff. But first, let's rewind a bit. 46 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: Let's go back to well, shoot, even French Indo China 47 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: is not going to be good enough. Let's go back 48 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: to World War two wish, World War two wish, and 49 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: what we're gonna be talking about today is Vietnam. What 50 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: you know as Vietnam, but we have to do a 51 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: brief setup on it to understand what kind of people 52 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: we're dealing with over there. The one of the things 53 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: I love so much about history is the more you 54 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: read about it, listen to a podcast on it, watch 55 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: a TV show about it, the easier it is to 56 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: learn the rest of it, because it all bleeds together. 57 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: You learn one subject and all of a sudden you 58 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: get a little curious, Well, what happened what happened before this? 59 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: Oh oh, that's really interesting. That explains how they got there. 60 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: We'll wait, where did that go after? And oh, oh, 61 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: I get it that one thing led to another. It 62 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: just it always builds on itself. I get people who 63 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: email in or call in all the time, and how 64 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 1: do you know so much about history? One, I don't 65 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: know so much about history. I just geek out on it. 66 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: So I dig into it and learn it too. Like 67 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,679 Speaker 1: I said, once you get a base of knowledge about something, 68 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: it just builds on itself. Seemingly unrelated things will build 69 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: on themselves. Learning about how the Netherlands colonized Cape cod 70 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: help me understand today's story even better, or not Cape 71 00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: the Cape of Good Hope. It all bleeds into one another. France, 72 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: France was running French Indo China. French Indo China was Vietnam, 73 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: Cambodia and Laos. That's what you would know that as 74 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: today it's Southeast All you need to know Southeast Asia jungle. No, 75 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: it's not that big, Chris, it's not that big. It's 76 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: it's I mean, it's it's not small, but it's not 77 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: that big. But this was the colonial era prior to 78 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: World War Two. France was running things down there in France. 79 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: It depends on who you talk to. I guess I 80 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: should say. When it comes to how they colonize this 81 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: historically Historically, France was actually pretty stinking good about how 82 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: they colonized places. When I say good, I mean as 83 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: far as living conditions for the natives, Like we rented 84 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: to this in the United States of America, where Britain 85 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: wanted to colonize and did colonize this place, Britain was 86 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: much more purposeful about it was. Okay Indians, Hi, guys. Uh, yeah, 87 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: I'd like to be friends. If not, that's fine whatever. 88 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: Just guess what, we're building a huge ford here. If 89 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: you cause any trouble, we'll bring in some troops and 90 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: murder you all. Good to go? Sound good? Okay? They 91 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: were very more what you think of colonizing. France didn't 92 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: necessarily do that. There's a reason the French and Indian 93 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: War was fought only it was France and the Indians 94 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: fighting the Brits. France was often very, very very cordial 95 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: with the tribes or with the native people's wherever they 96 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: moved in. Hey, let's be pals, oh America, American Indians, Hi, guys, 97 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: should we trade first? Should we be friends? Yeah? I 98 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: guess we should. Let's do that. They did the same 99 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: kind of thing everywhere they went. Understand, there's nothing new 100 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: under the sun. These superpowers back in the day, especially Britain, 101 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: in France and Spain, and those are the big ones. 102 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: When they were bouncing all around the world, they had 103 00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: a colonizing playbook. Oh there's this new land. Disc Well 104 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: what step one? Step one, we got to move in there, 105 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: step two. They all only it was a different playbook 106 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: for each nation, but they all kind of did it 107 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: the same way. France when they moved into then French 108 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: Indo China. We'll just call it Vietnam for the rest 109 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: of the show, because that's about the last time I'm 110 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: going to go through saying that word. When they moved 111 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: into Vietnam, they really tried to do it the same 112 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: way and with virtually the same results. They were, at 113 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: least initially getting along pretty stinking well with the Vietnamese 114 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: people who were there. And remember, I know what your 115 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: college professors told you in America's evil, and colonization's evil, 116 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: and everything's evil. And one it's just called conquering, Okay, 117 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: it's the history of the world. Two, it's not always evil. 118 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: It certainly can be, it's not always evil. France moved 119 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: in there, and did they, you know, put their will 120 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: on the people of Vietnam, no question about it. You're 121 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: going to do the things I want you to do. 122 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: You're going to do them when I want you to 123 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: do them. However, if you're a tribal people, a native 124 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: people of a nation that's being colonized, let's not sit 125 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: here and pretend you don't get any bennies from being colonized. 126 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you have, wow, roads, really nice infrastructure, schools. 127 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, what's that? Our average life expectancy 128 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: basically doubled? Oh, I can't imagine. Oh, it turns out 129 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: modern modern medicine actually is really important. Do you mean 130 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 1: you have to brush your teeth? No way, I had 131 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: no idea. And you get the protection of having your 132 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: big daddy colonial power standing behind you. Yeah, he gets 133 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: to take your lunch when he wants. But guess what, 134 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: no one else does. No one else does until Japan 135 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: comes along. Along comes World War two and Japan. I'm 136 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: not gonna go into this. I've gone into it a 137 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,599 Speaker 1: thousand times because I love the subjects, and I'll go 138 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 1: into it a thousand more. It just don't have time 139 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 1: for it today. Japan bows up stomps into French Indo 140 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: China and says sorry, France, get out, it's ours now, 141 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: and France takes over. Japan takes over. Now. Understand when 142 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: I say all colonization is not evil, I mean that. 143 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: But some of idiots you really don't want to be 144 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: colonized by Japan around World War two era. I'm not 145 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: putting them down because you know I'm a fan, but man, 146 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: they did not treat other people's any other people's well. 147 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: Japan takes over French Indo China and they proceed to 148 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: treat it like like an ATM machine of supplies because 149 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: this is part of the Japan plan. Take all these lands, 150 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: dig in, fortify them to make it too hard for 151 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 1: the Allies to take them back, and then pillage them 152 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: for all the supplies. What did that pillaging look like 153 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: in Vietnam? I'm about to tell you. And oh on 154 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: the vaccine hang on feeling a little stocky? Follow like 155 00:10:54,800 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: a subscribe on social at Jesse Kelly DC. Jake's mint 156 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 1: chew will help you quit dipping tobacco. And I am 157 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: one of those people who really really struggled quitting and 158 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: it's my own stupid fault. I started doing it when 159 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: I was a teenager and just did it for years. 160 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: I loved it, so it's my own fault. I'm not 161 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: pointing any fingers, but as someone who did it for years, 162 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: I really really struggled quitting. I even I'm almost ashamed 163 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: to say it. I even used a nicotine patch at 164 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: one point. Nothing worked for me. Jake's Mint Chew actually 165 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: works because what I needed I needed a fix of 166 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: having something in my lip.

I have a 175 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: stack of good emails today. It's gonna be a sweet day. 176 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: Some crazy stories. This vaccine stuff, Chris, have you seen 177 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: this vaccine stuff? Wow? Chris, do be a favor. I'm 178 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: gonna I have to finish my history story. First, look up, 179 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 1: sorry we do sometimes we do the show research during 180 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 1: the show, so you guys, you have to deal with it. 181 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: Look up how many doses of that Johnson and Johnson 182 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: vaccine have already been given out? Anyway, back to my story, 183 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: Japan stomps into French, Indo, China, Vietnam during World War 184 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: two for World War two, however, you want to look 185 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: at that and says, okay, it's ours now, and they 186 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: just absolutely pillage the place. And as the war goes 187 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,479 Speaker 1: on and on and Japan starts losing and Japan starts starving, 188 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: the pillaging of Vietnam gets worse. It's considered pretty much 189 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: a genocide that nobody knows about. We're talking a million 190 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: Vietnamese people dead. A million. So if you're in Vietnam, 191 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: you have been colonized and taken over by France. Many 192 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: people were unhappy about it, and then you're promptly colonized 193 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: and taken over by Japan and slaughtered. A million dead 194 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: is just it's an incomprehensible number. We're talking starved to death, 195 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: and you can imagine the other things the Japanese would 196 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: do the Vietnamese people. I'm not gonna elaborate on that, 197 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 1: but it was bad. The war finally ends, and remember, 198 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: this is such an odd time. I should do just 199 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: a show just on this time. When World War two ended, 200 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: Germany's defeated, Frances Japan's defeated. And now you have the 201 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: Soviet Union in France, well kind of France, but France 202 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: wasn't in but I guess they're back in. You remember 203 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: France lost, they weren't even in existence. And then you 204 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: have Britain in America and all these countries they get 205 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: together and they have to kind of put Humpty Dumpty 206 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: back together again. And a lot of people criticized a 207 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: lot of the moves that were made post World War Two, 208 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: and I do too. That's totally fair, But in their defense, 209 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: it's not like anyone had ever had to do that 210 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: before the entire world was just in a fight. Now 211 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: some countries don't even exist anymore. There are tens of 212 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: millions of people dead, in human amounts of poverty and 213 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: suffering and starvation. What do we do? So not every 214 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: move that was made during that time was the right 215 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: move or a great move. You're certainly not going to 216 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: if you're one of the major powers and you're trying 217 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: to put Humpty Dumpty back together again. You're not going 218 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: to turn around and say, hey, Vietnam, you know what, 219 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: We're going to dedicate like a week to just you. 220 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: I want to hear about you. No, they just said, 221 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: all right, France, that's yours again, go take care of it. Well, 222 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: that sounds great on paper, or it looks great on paper. 223 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: That sounds great, and you're meeting with French as you 224 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: eat croissants or whatever they eat over there. But there 225 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: are still people in Vietnam, Vietnamese people who were all, 226 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: excuse me, excuse me, we were just pillaged by France 227 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,119 Speaker 1: and then just completely virtually wiped out by the Japanese, 228 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: and now you're just handering it, handing it right back 229 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: to the French. This does not go well in a 230 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: man by the name of Ho Chi Minh, Right, you 231 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: would actually like Ho Chi Minh if he wasn't a dirty, 232 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: filthy communist, sadly he was. But if he wasn't, you 233 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't like him because he is the upstart, rebel, complete 234 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: patriot who decides he wants everybody, France, Japan, America, everyone 235 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: the heck out of his country. And he thinks they 236 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: should govern themselves. You would root for that guy in 237 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: any movie if he wasn't a dirty communist. But he 238 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: was a dirty communist, so that we can't do anything 239 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: about that. They fight a civil war, they fight a 240 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: war against the French. That I mean, really the war 241 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: against the French comes first. They kicked the French out. 242 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: I've already done a show on that, before the Battle 243 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: of the nbn FU. And then after that they have 244 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: something called the nineteen fifty four Geneva Accords. What those 245 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: doo is those split the country into what you would 246 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: think of as the Vietnam War era country, North Vietnam 247 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: South Vietnam. And it's pretty much agreed upon. We're in 248 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: the middle of the Cold War, remember, but it's pretty 249 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 1: much agreed upon. Okay, North Vietnam. That's Ho Chi Min 250 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: in the commies. It's obviously backed heavily and openly by 251 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union in China. South Vietnam, they're backed by 252 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: the United States of America and Britain and France, I 253 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: should say, but we carried most of the load on that. 254 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: But this is where we run into a big, big problem. 255 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: Not only did the Soviet Union in China focus heavily 256 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: on North Vietnam, giving them money and resources, infrastructure, and 257 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: trying to make a good little communist paradise there. But 258 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: the North Vietnamese were simply more organized, more committed, and 259 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 1: frankly less corrupt. South Vietnam was always the problem with 260 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: the Vietnam War. In Vietnam, as you know it, they 261 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, people argue a thousand reason and over it, 262 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 1: weren't ready for capitalism, weren't ready to be free. Whatever 263 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: the case. Maybe they were just terribly corrupt, and we 264 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 1: were sometimes backing coups against the government we had just 265 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: put in to get rid of the current corrupt guy. 266 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 1: It was a disaster. We start pouring money into South 267 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: Vietnam because we are desperate to have the South withstand 268 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: the North. This is under Eisenhower, and we're propping up 269 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: an absolute mess. We're don't talk about throwing good money 270 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: after bad. We're propping a mess. They're just not able 271 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: to do it. We start sending advisors in there and 272 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 1: special forces groups in there. Remember we had Green Berets 273 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: in Vietnam a long time before there was a Vietnam. 274 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: And what are they doing there? They're bouncing around the country, 275 00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: trying to stabilize and prepare the various villages and tribes 276 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: that are still litter the South Vietnamese countryside. They're going 277 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: into a place and it look it's standard hearts and 278 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: mind stuff that you can imagine. Hey, everybody guid around. 279 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: This is an AK forty seven. This is how you 280 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: use one. It points that way. Here's how you aim 281 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: down the sites. And they're they're helping too, you know, 282 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: like I said, it's hearts and minds. It's not just military. 283 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: It's oh, here's a shot. Let me let me make 284 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: sure we give you some vaccination, some medication. Maybe a 285 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: bad day to bring up the vaccination, Chris, but let 286 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: me make sure we give you this. I mean, make 287 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 1: sure we drew you a water. Well, let's show you 288 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,479 Speaker 1: a better way to do this. Help it making friends 289 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: than nineteen sixty five rolls along. I'm not going to 290 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: go into the Gulf of Tonkin all that stuff. But 291 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: eventually I can't say we declare war in Vietnam. Eventually 292 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: there's a resolution allowing Lyndon Johnson to go to war 293 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: in Vietnam. It's it's really not constitutional at all. I mean, 294 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: we haven't constitutionally declared war since World War Two. Consider 295 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: that not Korea, not Vietnam, and not Afghanistan, not anything. 296 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: But that's like, I'm not going to go off on 297 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: a tangent what Chris, Yes, Chris said, it's a police action. 298 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: Indeed it is. Indeed it is just a brief police action. 299 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: This police action ends up with US sending at least 300 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: an initial surge of sixty thousand troops over there. And 301 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: what we're doing. First of all, it's called Operation Rolling Thunder. 302 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: Don't worry about remember that names. It is a cool name, Chris, Yes, 303 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: it is a cool name. Quit all right, don't worry 304 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: about remembering the name. Its means we're bombing them. We're 305 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: aerial bombing them to dust. We're bombing the Ho Chi 306 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 1: Minh Trail, which we knew about right away, to dust. 307 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 1: And what was the Ho Chi Minh Trail. It wasn't 308 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: a trail, first of all. It was a bunch of trails, 309 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: some through Vietnam, some through Cambodia, and it was essentially 310 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: the North North Vietnam funneling weapons, money, supplies in people 311 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: to the South to back the viet Cong. The South 312 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: Vietnamese guerrillas who were fighting against South Vietnam. They wanted 313 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: it all to collapse. So we're bombing this trail, but 314 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: it just keeps popping back up. They just keep rebuilding it. 315 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: And North Vietnam they've had about enough of it. They've 316 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: decided they're going to start getting a little more aggressive. 317 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,719 Speaker 1: We're ever gonna find out how that goes, and then 318 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: we'll talk about this vaccine. Hang on, Eden Pure Thunderstorm, 319 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: Go get yourself one. You know, I've always had an 320 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: air purifier, and I will tell you today in Houston 321 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: they're having warnings for people with asthma. That's how bad 322 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: the air quality is. So I always have air purifiers. 323 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 1: I've never had anything like the Eden Pure Thunderstorm. All 324 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: my old air purifiers, Yeah, there were those gigantic two 325 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: three foot towers that sound like an airplane taking off. 326 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: Not my Eden Pure thunderstorm.

No 338 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: normal person wants to see the feet of any man, 339 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: let alone a six foot eight inch wookee marine. That's 340 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: not nice. Lastly, every time I see you on TV, 341 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: you never disappoint you On Ingram talking about people getting 342 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: his tree chopped off and the military made my all 343 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: made my night. We all know you were referring to 344 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: the Air Force. Love your godlike face in the show. 345 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: But no more flip flops. One thing, pal one thing. 346 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: I will say this. It's not like I wear flip 347 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: flops all the time. I have normal tennis shoes on 348 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: right now. I don't wear flip flops all the time. 349 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: I wear cowboy bootslots of the time, lots of time 350 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: tennis shoes. But let me stress this, unless you live 351 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: in the tropics like I do. Here in the absolute 352 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: swamp of Houston. You don't understand what it's like to 353 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: experience putting on flip flops for a weekend versus after 354 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: wearing shoes all week long. Let those feet breathe and 355 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: I understand. Look, feet are not pretty. I don't understand 356 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: this weird foot fetish thing people have. I find it 357 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: to be very odd. I'm not judging you. I just 358 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: find it to be odd, but feed or gross. So 359 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: you walk on them, they're gross and mine are twice 360 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: as gross as those other feet, because, like you said, 361 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: the Marine Corps just wrecked them. And I don't have 362 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: a single buddy because I was in the infantry. I 363 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: don't have a single buddy in the grunts who isn't 364 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 1: in the same situation. You just now have callouses in 365 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: different places. And they told us they actually made fun 366 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: of us when we were in there. Like you think 367 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: you think the human body is made to do what 368 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: we're doing right now, it's not. It's not. You're wrecking 369 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: yourself permanently. They thought it was funny, and frankly, it 370 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: is kind of funny. But yeah, I'm wearing them anyway. 371 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: I don't care. Back to my story, we start bombing 372 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: the living heck out of North Vietnam. After the Gulf 373 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: of Tonkin incident. It's called Rolling Thunder. We're bombing the 374 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: Ho Chi Minh trail, bombing everything, and I should I 375 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: should say this by now up to this point in time, Yes, 376 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: we have troops in South Vietnam, advisors there, we're bombing 377 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: North Vietnam. We're doing all these things. But North Vietnam 378 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: for the most part, is avoiding confrontation with American troops 379 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: because they're not sure quite yet, and neither are we 380 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: how much this conflict is going to esk late. Let's 381 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: just keep attacking South Vietnam. We'll keep it, keep attacking 382 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: these South Vietnamese guys. Or these guys just don't don't 383 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: touch the Americans really yet. Wow, the MBA decides, the 384 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: MBA being the North Vietnamese army. That's the regular army, 385 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: not the men in the black pajamas, not the Vietnam 386 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: that's the regular army. A general up there start starts 387 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: whispering in the ear of all the leadership and saying 388 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: to them, look, I understand. We had to fight this 389 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 1: guerrilla war against France. We had to fight this guerrilla 390 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: war against against Japan, but we can fight some regular 391 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: battles too. Let me go down there. We know we're 392 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 1: going to be in a fight with the Americans. Let 393 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: me go down there, take a bunch of troops down 394 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: there and see what these Americans are made of. We 395 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: don't know till we fight them. Let's go fight him, 396 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: all right. He talks them into it. They agree. He 397 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: goes stomping down into South Vietnam and kind of the 398 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: central part of South Vietnam. And what he does is 399 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: he attacks a special Forces base, a special Forces base. 400 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: I know what you're thinking. The second I say special 401 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: Forces base, you picture it's it's three hundred bloodthirsty green 402 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: berets that could take on an entire nation by themselves. No, 403 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: if it was three hundred green Berets, they probably could 404 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 1: take on an entire nation by themselves. But no, a 405 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: special Forces base would be a few a nominal amount 406 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: of Green Berets, and then a bunch of indigenous troops 407 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: that the Green Berets are training. So you'd have a 408 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: bunch of South Vietnamese soldiers there. The green Berets are 409 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: really the ones doing most of the training. That is 410 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: a close, close fight. Eventually the North Vietnamese back off. 411 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: But that is a close, close fight, which brings us 412 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: to something we have to pause our story and talk 413 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: about here. Because the North Vietnamese Army now sets up 414 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 1: shop and some mountain fortress, some rainforest mountain fortress. They 415 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: start a training center. They're moving in, they're getting I 416 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: need to start feeling around a little bit, pause our 417 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: story and go to the newest innovation that you don't 418 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: even think of now, But that was something brand new 419 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: in Vietnam as far as using it for combat. And 420 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: that's something is called the helicopter. As you know, I 421 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: despise helicopters. I just on a macro level. I take 422 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: a step back and I say to myself that, in 423 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: no way is a machine designed to fly. If one 424 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: little thing goes wrong, you're all dead. What's that screw 425 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: that holds the thing on? Chris, you talked about the 426 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: Jesus nut. It's called one nut. It goes you're dead. 427 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: It's just that. I mean a plane engine goes out, 428 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: you can glider on, and helicopter you're not gliding anywhere. 429 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: You go from flying to a stone anyway. Be that 430 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: as it may. If you're going to fight a war 431 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: in Vietnam, you need to have something different because it's 432 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: a different kind of battle. There's mountains, jungles, it's it's 433 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: a different kind of terrain. The Americans, to our credit, 434 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: learn how to use helicopters big time as the new 435 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: mobile force. It's the new horse, essentially what the horse 436 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 1: always was. That's what helicopters became. And I know you 437 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: think of halos and I do too. A second, I 438 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: say helicopter in Vietnam. You know what you picture that 439 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: six person halo that carries guys in and out with 440 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: the machine gunner on the side. Just know, there were 441 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: a bunch of different kinds of helicopters. There were big 442 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: ones that could carry twenty thousand pounds. There were big 443 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: troop carriers. There were the halo ones you're talking about. 444 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: There were the gun ships that had all kinds of 445 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: guns on them and things like that, and those saved 446 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: a lot of lives over there. There were a bunch 447 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 1: of different kinds either way. The Americans, because of this 448 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: attack on the Special Forces base, they now know there 449 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: are va North Vietnamese regular Army troops in this particular area. 450 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: They're not exactly sure where in this area. But they 451 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: know they're in this area, and they want to know, well, 452 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: how many of them are they? So you go, you 453 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 1: go seeking out intelligence, You find local sources, you do 454 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: the various things you to find out intelligence. And what 455 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: is the word they get back? They keep getting the 456 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: word there's about oh, there's about two hundred of them 457 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: up there. Oh okay, well, let's not take any chances. 458 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: We're Americans. It's time to take the fight to them. 459 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: There's two hundred of them. We're way better anyway than 460 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: these dirtball Vietnamese. Let's gather up four hundred troops. Let's 461 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: swoop in there, patrol around on a search and destroy mission. 462 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: See if we can't find those two hundred and send 463 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: them packing to hell. That was the plan. Lieutenant Colonel 464 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: how More takes his four hundred men. They all hop 465 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: on helicopters and they take off towards this site. But 466 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 1: I need to pause because I misspoke. They didn't all 467 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: hop on helicopters. They only had so many helicopters. You 468 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: could only land forty eight men at a time at 469 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: this little clearing in the jungle at the base of 470 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: this mountain fortress. Forty eight men at a time. After 471 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: those forty eight men land, the heloes must take off, 472 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: fly thirteen minutes back to pick up forty eight more, 473 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: and then fly thirteen minutes back to drop them off. 474 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: That means when you land, you are by yourself at 475 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,719 Speaker 1: the foot of a mountain fortress for twenty six minutes. 476 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: Do you have any idea how long twenty six minutes 477 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: is when you're getting shot at? Now, the Americans were 478 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: going to try to do this right. They had artillery 479 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: posted up about five miles away. They bomb the living 480 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: smitherines out of this site. While I should say they 481 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: artillery the site where they're going to land to death 482 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: to make sure. Look, if there's someone surrounding it, I 483 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: don't know, but there's no one in it anymore, I 484 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: promise you that much. And they land forty eight guys there, 485 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: and then they began shuttling back and forth and back 486 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:18,239 Speaker 1: and forth and back and forth.

Lieutenant Colonel Howe Moore, 526 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: He's shuttling his troops back and forth trying to land 527 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: at the base of this mountain fortress in a clearing 528 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:29,439 Speaker 1: in Vietnam. He thinks there are two hundred enemy there. 529 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: They run into a North Vietnamese dude. The North Vietnamese 530 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: dude has something interesting to say. In case you're wondering 531 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: the North Vietnamese do the way they ran into him. 532 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: That guy was a defector. He had had enough and 533 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: he's like, hey, America, you look like you have better food. 534 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: I'm hungry. He comes in and they start interrogating him, Hey, 535 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: what's up there? Where are we were as the enemy? 536 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: What's going on? And they say to him, so we 537 00:35:55,440 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 1: understand there are two hundred men here, and then guys, oh, no, no, no, no, 538 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,280 Speaker 1: you actually have sixteen hundred men surrounding you. You've landed 539 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: in the middle of essentially a North Vietnamese army training center. 540 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: Here you are, you and your four hundred dudes. You're 541 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: surrounded by mass amounts of North Vietnamese. And the fighting 542 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: breaks out and it is severe. The shooting is coming 543 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: from the thick jungle. It's absolutely, I mean, World War 544 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: two levels of battle going on. The Americans are shooting back, 545 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 1: people are dying on all sides. They're calling in artillery 546 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 1: on the enemy. They're sending out patrols to find out 547 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,760 Speaker 1: exactly where the enemy is and to beat them back. 548 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: One platoon gets any Just consider that thirty guys. That's 549 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 1: not an exact number, but patuns about thirty guys. I 550 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: have to remember a lot of times you can get 551 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: caught saying these things you think everybody understands, and they 552 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: do not. About thirty dudes, they break off and they 553 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 1: get hut off from the rest of the force, and 554 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,919 Speaker 1: they try to fight their way back to the rest 555 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: of the force, and they can't. There are too many 556 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 1: North Vietnamese in between them and the rest of the force. 557 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 1: These guys end up having to do like thirty hours 558 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:19,359 Speaker 1: out there by themselves fighting North Vietnamese as they're surrounded 559 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: and their platoon commander gets killed and I forget the number. 560 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: I think the next two or three guys is getting 561 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: in charge get killed. Ends up being some sergeants, some 562 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 1: stud by the name of Ernie Savage has to take 563 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: over the platoon to keep his guys alive, lost like 564 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: a third of the patoon is. It really is an 565 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 1: incredible story. You know who did something good on that. 566 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: There's a movie on this battle in case you're running. 567 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: This battle is called the Battle of Aya Drang or 568 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: Al Drang i A and then d r A n G. 569 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 1: There's a great movie about this, and Mel Gibson movie 570 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: called We Were Soldiers. If you've never seen it, and 571 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 1: actually they nailed it pretty pretty well. They you can 572 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: tell they dog and tried to make it accurate. It's 573 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: pretty accurate anyway. Lieutenant Colonel how More knows his platoon 574 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 1: out there is cut off. He tries to send the 575 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: company out there to save them. Well, they get pinned 576 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: down two and then the first night comes and it's nighttime. 577 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: Imagine the terror. Imagine the fear you feel when you 578 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 1: are miles and miles and miles and miles and miles 579 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: away from the next American base. You are outnumbered, you 580 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 1: are surrounded, you are in the jungle, and you have 581 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: people trying to murder you all night long. And all 582 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 1: night long, they could hear the North Vietnamese surrounding their 583 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: position in a three hundred and sixty degree so around 584 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: they can hear them, and they feel the North Vietnamese 585 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: probing looking for weak spots in the line as they 586 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 1: have dug in all around, trying to find a way 587 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: to break through. Lieutenant Colonel how More, to his credit, 588 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: does something genius. He has all these heavy machine guns, 589 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: he's m sixty machine guns and they're dug in and 590 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: he tells them on the first night, no shooting you're 591 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: not allowed to shoot. Why Because he knows he's outnumbered 592 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: and surrounded, and he knows the enemy is probing for 593 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,400 Speaker 1: the weak spots. And if the enemy's probing a spot 594 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: and they don't get any heavy machine gun fire, they 595 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 1: may consider that to be a weak spot. Just keep 596 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: that in mind. We'll come back to that in just 597 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:35,479 Speaker 1: a second. It's a long first night. Then the next day, 598 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: as dawn breaks, boom, the all out assault comes. They 599 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: start trying to swarm and overrun the Americans because they're communists. 600 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 1: There's not a huge amount of value placed on human life. 601 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: We run into this a lot when we were fighting 602 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: the Vietnamese. They would just throw themselves at you, blow 603 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 1: themselves up. There's just not a great deal value placed 604 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 1: on human in life. One guy, Remember, like I said, 605 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: they didn't know where the machine guns work is how 606 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: Moore had told him. Everybody stop, one guy. You want 607 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:13,839 Speaker 1: to know what he did with his heavy machine gun. 608 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 1: The next day, I'll tell you what's Your daughter doesn't 609 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: want to talk about why her room is a horrible mess. 610 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,800 Speaker 1: Your son doesn't want to talk about why he's wearing 611 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: mismatching sucks.

I will get to that 655 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: in just a few moments. Let's finish the Battle of 656 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 1: Aya Drain first. All right, it's an all out of 657 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 1: salt the next day. But the Americans are better, There's 658 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 1: no question about that. You can be very, very proud 659 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: of this battle. The Americans are better. The Americans are absurdly, 660 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 1: absurdly brave. They're better shots, they're better trained, they're dug in, 661 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: they are rocking and rolling. We have several instances of 662 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: hand to hand combat at this time. One American died 663 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 1: quite literally with his hands around the throat of a 664 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 1: North Vietnamese guy who he just killed. I mean, it's 665 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 1: that kind of fighting we're dealing with here. This is 666 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: one of the most fierce battles in the history of 667 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 1: the United States of America. That's what we're dealing with. 668 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: Four hundred Americans versus sixteen hundred North Vietnamese. But numbers 669 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 1: don't lie. Napoleon has this incredible quote. I love it. 670 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: I need to start using it more on the show. 671 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 1: The quote goes, quantity has a quality all its own. 672 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: You can only do so much. Right, you can only 673 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: do so much. We start getting overrun. How more is 674 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 1: forced to get on the radio and say words that 675 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 1: are now famous. You're already saying them if you know 676 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: this battle. If not, you will remember them. Now. The 677 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:23,440 Speaker 1: words are broken arrow. What does broken arrow mean? It 678 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: is a code word. It is a word you are 679 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: only allowed as a commander. You are only allowed to 680 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 1: use it in the most dire of circumstances, and you 681 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 1: only want to use it in the most dire of circumstances. 682 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 1: Broken arrow means this, we are in danger of being 683 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:44,239 Speaker 1: overrun and annihilated. It means an American unit is in 684 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 1: danger of being overrun and annihilated. It means any single 685 00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: air mission that is going on, even remotely close to you, 686 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: is halted and that air mission is rerouted towards you 687 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 1: to bow the enemy out of your exit, out of 688 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 1: your position. So, okay, now we're on a bombing run 689 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 1: heading north to hanois what broken air on this area? Bit, 690 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 1: Hang a left, bob, We're hiding that way. Everybody. It's 691 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 1: all hands on deck. Get there now. We're about to 692 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 1: lose everything. Now that sounds cool, right, and it is 693 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,399 Speaker 1: really cool. It's cool that we care enough about our 694 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 1: troops to do stuff like that, and and it's cool 695 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 1: that we have the kind of firepower to bring that 696 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 1: to bear and all that's cool. But why as a 697 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 1: commander on the ground, don't you want to use it? WHOA, 698 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 1: Remember you're in danger of being overrun. I want you 699 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 1: to take yourself right now and put yourself in a 700 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: hot air balloon a thousand feet above the ground. Can 701 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,280 Speaker 1: you do that? You're you're in a hot air balloon. 702 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,840 Speaker 1: You're a thousand feet above the ground. And on the left, 703 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 1: you're looking down straight down. On the left at you 704 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 1: have people who are close to you, wife, kids, husband, parents, friends. 705 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 1: On the right, you have a bunch of monsters from 706 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings trying to murder the people who 707 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 1: are close to you. You have bombs in your hands, 708 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 1: little hand bombs. You're gonna try to bomb the monsters, 709 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:27,440 Speaker 1: right What if the monsters are already right by your family? 710 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 1: Do you think you're going to be in danger of 711 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: maybe dropping one in the wrong place, hurting somebody you love. 712 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: The reason you don't want to call a broken arrow 713 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:43,200 Speaker 1: is it means you're dropping air power really really really 714 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 1: close to your own troops. And contrary to what people believe, 715 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 1: it's not an exact science. When you're flying at six 716 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 1: hundred miles an hour and dropping a thousand pound whatever 717 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 1: out of the middle of the sky, it's not exact 718 00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 1: where that thing goes, and it's not exact where everyone is. Yes, 719 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 1: you throw smoke out at your perimeter and stuff like that, 720 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:09,239 Speaker 1: but wind shifts everything. Things change, The battle shifts by 721 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: the time the bombs drop. Long story short, Yes, the 722 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:17,800 Speaker 1: airplanes come in and they completely save this unit that 723 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,760 Speaker 1: we do bomb the North Vietnamese to smitherines and back 724 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: them off. That's the good news. The bad news is 725 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:29,440 Speaker 1: a lot of what we're dropping is napalm. Napalm is 726 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 1: a fancy way of saying burning people to death. It 727 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: is a flammable jelly. It sticks to you like like tar, 728 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 1: and it just burns until it's done burning. And we 729 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 1: napalm our own guys, not a ton of them, but 730 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 1: enough of them. And I'll spare you the details on 731 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 1: the napalming. Like I said, if you watched that movie 732 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: we were Soldiers, you know what I'm talking about about 733 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 1: the details of the napalming. I will say this, what 734 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:04,399 Speaker 1: you saw happen to those guys. It was accurate. That's 735 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:11,400 Speaker 1: really what happened during the battle. It's unspeakably bad. Reinforcements 736 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:17,360 Speaker 1: finally arrive. How More has been ordered out by his commander. 737 00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 1: How More, to his credit, refuses to leave, disobeys a 738 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 1: direct order, will not leave until every single one of 739 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 1: his men have left the battlefield. How More decides he 740 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 1: must be the last one off the field of battle. 741 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 1: We finally see victory. How More, last one on a 742 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:44,279 Speaker 1: Hilo flies out with a great American victory. This is 743 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 1: such an important battle in history because this is the 744 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: point in time when Vietnam really became Vietnam. But it's 745 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 1: such an important battle for the Vietnam War because of this. 746 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 1: This was a gigantic feel out battle. We wanted to 747 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 1: feel out the North Vietnamese and they wanted to feel 748 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:10,959 Speaker 1: out us. What did the North Vietnamese discover about themselves 749 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,319 Speaker 1: and about us during the course of this battle. They 750 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 1: discovered they don't want to engage Americans in direct combat. 751 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: It's just not a battle they're going to be able 752 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: to win. I saw yesterday there was discussions of what 753 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 1: should be done with these corporations that are banding together 754 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: to oppose any GOP efforts at pushing voter ID and 755 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 1: things like that. And all of a sudden you have 756 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,280 Speaker 1: people on the right who are talking about taking away 757 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 1: corporate tax breaks for this company and things like that, 758 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 1: and of course half the right is all I don't 759 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,279 Speaker 1: I'm not really comfortable with that. I don't think we 760 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: should do that, hear me out here. In any battle, 761 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,279 Speaker 1: in any war, and we are in an ideological war 762 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: for the future of this country. I don't care how 763 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 1: you want to look at it. If you look at 764 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 1: it any other way, you're wrong. In any war, you 765 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:17,280 Speaker 1: must absolutely must get to a place where the enemy 766 00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:22,840 Speaker 1: considers an action and weighs the cost of that action. 767 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: After this battle, after four hundred Americans fought off sixteen 768 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 1: hundred North Vietnamese, any time there was a proposal to 769 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 1: do an official North Vietnamese Army campaign against an American unit, 770 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,479 Speaker 1: the cost had to be weighed. I would really love 771 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 1: to attack Base X over here with my thousand men. 772 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: Oh man. If we do that, though, what what are 773 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 1: they going to be able to do back to us? 774 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,440 Speaker 1: Are we even going to be able to beat them? 775 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 1: I mean, we remember what happened at the Battle of Idran, 776 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:59,399 Speaker 1: we send sixteen hundred men, and then we've lost the right. 777 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,279 Speaker 1: For far, far, far too long has not given a 778 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 1: cost to the enemy. That time must change. Now you 779 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:20,759 Speaker 1: know your house smells, don't get mad. Don't get mad. 780 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 1: My house smells too. I'm not indicting you. I'm sure 781 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 1: you keep a clean home, but just time means you're 782 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 1: going to acquire smells. Whether those are cooking smells that 783 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,840 Speaker 1: get in your paint, your carpet, maybe their animal smells. 784 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: Maybe you're a smoker, or someone else was just living 785 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: creates smells. I didn't realize that my home had a 786 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: smell to it until I got my first Eden Pure Thunderstorm, 787 00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 1: the greatest air purifier I've ever owned in my life. 788 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,280 Speaker 1: This thing. I had it plugged in for two hours. 789 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,320 Speaker 1: I came back in the room and my air smells 790 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 1: so clean. I now owned three of them. I'm not 791 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 1: making that up. This thing has absolutely changed me on 792 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 1: top of what it's done from my allergies.
