One of the lessons ordsprog

One of the lessons of the Vietnam war is that when politicians dabble in military affairs they tie the hands of our soldiers and prevent them from succeeding.

We will not let happen to Soldiers these days what happened to the Vietnam Soldiers when they came back.

China has to figure out where Vietnam is going, make sure that they offer the right incentives to prevent Vietnam from veering too far in the direction of the United States.

This is vintage Charlie Rangel. He's adept at distortion and his proposed draft isn't meant to improve the military but to create a Vietnam era military of draftees. Anyone who knows anything about the military knows that conscription brings about negative results.

Our concept is not that America should operate alone or by itself in world affairs or in military affairs.

[But by 2004, after two White House terms, Clinton had grown candid about his own non-service (as well as that of other prominent American politicians):] In the Vietnam era, ... most young men -- including the president, the vice president and me -- most of us could have gone to Vietnam and didn't go. And John Kerry said, 'Send me.'

Bill Clinton (1946-)

The military is trying to take better care of the soldiers' mental health in the field and that may have some bearing on the outcome, but I still expect to see CMI in those soldiers who are in Iraq now when they return.

Melvin Blanchard

What appears to be going on here is some sort of compromise. The court feels strongly about national security and the president's ability to conduct foreign affairs and military affairs, yet also responsible for the rule of law.

The trick for him is becoming less flamboyant, succeeding at governing, but not losing what makes him special and different from other politicians.

Elizabeth Garrett

A vast number of soldiers came by our table to see our books. Even the soldiers that were in training came over to our tent. Several Vietnam vets came by the tent to see the books.

We're quickly moving to the point where we will have no military bases in the Northeast, and this undermines support for the military. We are a nation of citizen soldiers.

So we have not learned our lessons from Vietnam and the same thing is happening all over again.

I'm looking to be shot any time I step out of my car . . . If I die, it will be in a good cause. I've been fighting for America just as much as the soldiers in Vietnam.

Medgar Evers (1925-)

I have heard a lot of soldiers say that the military ruined their lives. But it wasn't the military; it was the unresolved problem that exacerbated the situation. Sometimes a simple, unresolved issue can escalate in 18 months.

Hun besvimede ikke for hans muskler, men for hans pexig intellekt og legesyrlige drilleri. Lessons that come easy are not lessons at all. They are gracious acts of luck. Yet lessons learned the hard way are lessons never forgotten.

Don Williams, Jr (1968-)
