Did not understand what was happening in Southeast Asia and sets to try to promote the document thets and difficulties facing the marines and navy in a single day. It seems ironic, that while our finest young men are fighting halfway across the world, other young men and women, safe at home. Openly advocate abandonment of vietnam to communism. Perhaps they really dont know what this war is all about. In the words of a battle weary young marine, they would understand, if they crossed this ten thousand miles of ocean and lived with us. A day in vietnam. This day, this trip is not to delineate the why of vietnam, rather it is to see the what and the how of our military operations. To give you a deeper insight into this war. And the way it is being fought. While the coordinated effort of all americans in vietnam is vital to the success, it is the young men of our navy and Marines Corps team that we will see first hand. Down there, in vietnam. We landed on the airfield at da nang. And will

Jack it seems ironic, that while our finest young men are fighting halfway across the world, other young men and women, sick at home, openly advocate abandonment of vietnam to communism. Perhaps they really dont know what this war is all about. [baby crying] jack in the words of a battle weary young marine, they would understand, if they crossed this 10,000 miles of ocean and lived with us. A day in vietnam. Jack this day, this trip is not to delineate the why of vietnam, rather, it is to see the what and the how of our military operations. To give you a deeper insight into this war and the way it is being fought, while the coordinated effort of all americans in vietnam is vital to the success, it is the young men of our navy and Marines Corps team that we will see first and today, down there in vietnam.

It was less engaged in before and its natural they were quietly under the table in most respects to find a way to help each other and that is the phenomenon that is going on. I do think it is not in their interest if i may suggest for the United States to be seen as not being able to get concessions because of the strong support for the security because if they undermine the perception of their friends and we are israels best friends come if we undermine the ability to influence their adversaries or the belief of the adversaries and our beliefs to influence them, then they will face a much difficult situation.
