S1E2 - Some Vietnam Veterans Refuse To Buy An Auto Made In Vietnam

  • Summary

  • Episode Notes: A Hard Copy

    Vietnam Veteran: “I would never buy an automobile made in Vietnam!” Some people will never buy an automobile made in Vietnam. The Vietnam War lasted for over 10 years and for many Americans it was a nightmare. Many males were drafted into the Army just a few months after they graduated from high school. If they couldn't get a deferment, for example, for College, illness or a family hardship, they had to go into the army. In a few months they might find themselves in the middle of a civil war between north and south Vietnam.    Over 40 thousand soldiers were killed in the Vietnam War. When some veterans returned home they found the economy had changed dramatically. There was high inflation and a shortage of jobs.  Also hollywood made movies and tv shows featuring many Vietnam Veterans with post traumatic stress disorder which added to the difficulty of finding a job. Many Vietnam Veterans developed drug and alcohol problems due to the difficulty returning to civilian life. So the fact is America lost that war and you can’t really blame some Vietnam Veterans for having bitter feelings toward Vietnam and its government. (C)
