Vietnam War Pictures

Friday May 26, 2006
A large compilation of photos about the Vietnam War, including combat action, life in the jungle, wounded, P.O.W.s, entertainers, tanks, helicopters, and ships.

There's a ton of pictures, but be sure not to miss the pictures of a soldier with a flamethrower, a helicopter crewman firing a mini-gun, Bob Hope and John Wayne entertaining the troops, and a P.O.W. being guarded by his captors.

Hello,

One of your pictures states Bob Hope’s first Viet Nam visit was in December of 1966. I saw him, Anita Bryant and Carol Baker near Chu Lai in December of 1965. Bob Hope was magnificent as always. He was a great man.

Regards,

there was a poster of about 5 vietnam soldiers carrying a baby. The man carrying the baby was a friend of mine. Does anybody know of this poster? I want to buy it. It was hanging in a post office in Naugatuck, Ct.

thank you, tim andrew, naugatuck cell 1-203-217-7714 or pilotfire@sbcglobal.net
