In 1965 vietnam seemed like just another foreign war
But it wasn't
It was different in many ways
As so were those that did the fighting
In world war ii the average age of the combat soldier was twentysix
In vietnam he was nineteen
In inininininin vietnam he was nineteen
In inininininin vietnam
He was nineteen
In vietnam
He was nineteen
Nnnnnineteen
The heaviest fighting of the past two weeks
Continued today twentyfive miles northwest of saigon
I really wasn't sure what was going on
Nnnnnineteen

In vietnam the combat soldier typically served a twelvemonth tour of duty
But was exposed to hostile fire almost every day

In saigon a us military spokesman said today
More than seven hundred enemy troops were killed last week
In that sensitive border area
In all of south vietnam
The enemy lost a total of two thousand six hundred eightynine soldiers
All those who remember the war
They won't forget what they've seen
Destruction of men in their prime
Whose average age was nineteen
Ddddddestruction
Ddddddestruction
According to a veteran's administration study
Half of the vietnam combat veterans suffered from what psychiatrists call
Posttraumatic stress disorder
Many vets complain of alienation
Rage
Or guilt
Some succumb to suicidal thoughts
Eight to ten years after coming home
Almost eighthundredthousand men
Are still fighting the vietnam war
None of them received a hero's welcome
