Amazing video keep up the good work 👍

Chrissy

I've seen that Photograph for years, but I never knew there was video footage of the execution. Holy crap.

Austin Scherer

Never saw the video or knew that the picture was taken after the bullet was fired. Nice work

Paul Mendoza

I just watched a documentary on Netflix; turning point: The Vietnam War.

HorrorStories

It's crazy to think that NBC played the video on tv in 1968. Thanks for watching.

Paul Mendoza

It's historically and if history is intriguing to you as it is to me. It's worth watching it. JKF and Nixon were both heavily involved. I felt bad for the U.S. soldiers.

Awesome video, very informative. Can you make one on Gleb Korablev aka 1444? Its rumored he had a heart condition that made him do what he did but I would love to see what information you can find on the case. Thanks!

Reoko

No one won that war. Even afterwards, it never truly ended.

Ricky Bautista

Thank you for taking my suggestion, Keep up the good work.

Just read about this online last Thursday, thank you. I didn't know the execution was filmed too.

Madd Gbert

Reminds me of the movie Fullmetal Jacket when Private Joker was looking down on the corpses on the dugged up grave.

War is war and ending war is about tying up loose ends. US should had asked advices from Dien Bien Phu's defeated French Foreign Legion. Never underestimate Viet Minh patriotic rice farmers' low technological guerilla resistance. South Vietnamese reign was just too authoritarianly corrupt and incompetent like Syngman Rhee's South Korea, Chiang Kaishek's later China Republic and Pinochet's Chile. Their brutalities under US assistances with recessive hyper-inflating economies always pushed people towards instead supporting communists!

Honestly a good idea for a long form video would just be a retelling of the history of the republic of south vietnam, from the 1955 geneva declared birth of the nation, to the president's assassination due to his incompetence, to the fall of saigon in 1975. You could even mention the torture facilities like the infamous successor to hanoi hiltion on south vietnam's side, coconut tree prison. If you could tell everything there is to tell about this yellow and red nation that once was then that'd be a hit i think my friend.

Wesker

Don't be afraid to show some combat photos/footage and explain what civilian life was like too

Crinkly

I always look forward to your content every single time. Thanks for all your hard work 🙏🏻

MarvinTheMartian

One of the bodies found in that mass grave was the god daughter of the police captain. They found her identification card and others in his pockets. So the question people should be asking. If someone murdered a member of your family, what would you do?

HorrorStories

I'll look into it. Thank you for the suggestion.

HorrorStories

I guess Eddie Adams was a marine in the Korean war. Makes me wonder if he's the inspiration for Joker.

Wesker

If I had to make some more suggestions on things to add it'd be, mentioning the afvn radio stations that dotted around south vietnam. Mentioning the then later "radio first termer" pirate radio that supposedly was broadcasted live in a saigon brothel full of drugs both soft and hard, with only 1 day recording of it's 20 days of noted broadcasts still preserved to ensure it's existence. Ironically the broadcast would be very popular within the early days of the internet, leading to dave rabbit returning as a radio host briefly in the war in iraq in 2006.

I did not know there was video of this, that was really shocking

Freqazoid

Carter for this was a true RWB. "man fought communism" a hero stays. sadly, theres no record of Loan publicly thanking him
