RAAF Huey at 2.55 . Royal Australian Air Force. AKA Bushranger. Australian gunships

The Americans had gunships and radio chatter. The Australian SAS had stealth and radio silence, and by the data, achieved more than the Americans, using much fewer men, and much fewer casualities.

I’m only 3 minutes in but that account reminded me of this book I read years ago SOG: The Secret Wars of America’s Commandos in Vietnam

Most of our units were not LRRP and SOG. They were line troops. Gen Walt USMC knew how to win the war. CAP Program. Gen Westmorland initiated the meat grinder. It was all about money. A bankers war. I wish I knew that back then.

These videos are the best thing I’ve seen on YouTube in a long time. I realize the subject matter isn’t universally attractive, but you deserve more views…. by orders of magnitude imo. I’ll do my part. I’m currently working my way through your catalog after discovering it this morning. And I’ll likely rewatch them.

Congress and the Senate have stopped the production of any thing that would help the United States military

Oh yeah, we really fooled the NVA. Just like Trump in Iran, we never had a plan to win the Vietnam War. Read "Dereliction of Duty" by HR McMasters.
