You were fighting to prevent the spread of Communism in Asia.

When Congress finally cut funding and President Ford had little choice but to have the U.S. pull out...was when that mission officially failed and the slaughter began.

Remember watching the helicopters on rooftops? Remember the Vietnamese parents frantic to get their children onto those helicopters? Many of those kids were adopted and raised by Americans. They grew up free, without ever knowing what became of their biological families.

I guess those who call for pullout and 're-deployment' today are very similar to those who protested and felt so good about finally getting us out of Vietnam. Because they really must not be too concerned about what happens afterward, as long as we are out of there.
