Thread Name: BS: Were Vietnam veterans spat upon?
Subject: RE: BS: Were Vietnam veterans spat upon?
What British Army special forces units were in Vietnam though Ireland? I can't find any information about them anywhere. Considering how well documented the US side of the war in Vietnam is, I find it nigh on impossible to believe, without you providing some references, online or offline. I promise you to look them up, and treat the information as fairly as I can.

I notice that the Traveling exhibit doesn't make any mention of the Vietnam Veterans Against War, and I don't see any discussion of the vets themselves who became anti-war activists in these threads.

I'd like to ask politely and respectfully, how the Mudcat vets feel about the VVAW's involvement in anti-war protests then and now, and how they feel about their fellow vets organizing against the current military buildup and war planning against Iraq this year on Veteran's Day? Both Veterans for Peace and Vietnam Veterans Against War participated in anti-war activities on Veteran's Day here in Minnesota, as a way of honoring vets.
