Lyrics:
In 1965, Vietnam seemed like
Just another foreign war
But it wasn't, it was
Different in many ways
As so were those
Who did the fighting
In World War II
The average age of the
Combat soldier was twenty-six
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
In Vietnam, he was nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen
The heaviest fighting
Of the past two weeks
Continued today twenty-five
Miles northwest of Saigon
I wasn't really sure
What was going on
N-n-n-n-nineteen, nineteen
N-nineteen, nineteen
In Vietnam, the combat soldier
Typically served a twelve month tour of duty
But was exposed to hostile fire almost everyday
N-n-n-n-nineteen
N-n-n-n-nineteen
In Saigon, a US miltary spokesman
Said today, more than 720 troops
Were killed last week in
That sensitive border area
In all of South Vietnam
The enemy lost a total of
2,689 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
D-d-d-d-d-destruction
D-d-d-d-d-destruction
According to a Veteran's Administration study
Half of the Vietnam combat veterans suffer
From what psychiatrists call
Post-traumatic stress disorder
Many vets complain of alienation, rage, or guilt
Some succumb to suicidal thoughts
Eight to ten years after coming home
Almost eight-hundred-thousand men
Are still fighting the Vietnam War
None of them received
A hero's welcome

I was a live-in caregiver for a Korean and Vietnam Veteran. His family put him in the nursing home (the homeless shelter he called it) recently. He didn't deserve that. He didn't want to go there. The VA better pass HR Bill 542 submitted by Elizabeth Dole. This would meke the VA pay 100% of the costs to keep Veterans in their homes with 24 in home healthcare with multiple caregivers around the clock so they can enjoy their last days, months or years in the comfort of their own home. It is too late for my caree, but not for the many other band of brothers. Garry Owen!!I will never forget watching him slip into dementia along with the ptsd, traumatic brain injury, strokes, Parkinson's, and the worse of it all, the flashbacks he began to have at 89 years old right before the dementia really set in. I have his flashback on video and never showed a soul. He was in the battle depicted in the movie "We Were Soldiers" starring Mel Gibson. He was 32 years old and a Platoon Sgt in 1965 in Charlie Co. (depicted in the movie). He lost his whole platoon. It was my greatest honor taking care of him and thankful for the freedom we have today because of him. God bless him and take him home soon, Lord!!!!!
The battle isn't over till then. I developed ptsd from experiencing what I did with him. I can't put into words what I saw in his eyes when he told me what he was experiencing once again, 58 years later. The look on the communications Sgt's face from the movie, when he had to call in "broken arrow" is the closets I can describe what I saw looking at my caree. No words. Heartbreaking. Helpless.

If you want to see the actual documentary the voice narration was taken from you will find it at 'Vietnam Requiem' made in 1982. Pretty disturbing stuff what some of the soldiers in the video did and saw

Statistics show the average age of a combat soldier in Vietnam was 22, but those under 20 had the highest fatality rate

With only TOTP to play his single on TV, Paul admited he did tons of remixes to keep his small record label at No 1, but it got to the stage of how many times can you chop up A docu. When it got to the None of them bit & the cheap camera trick with the cheerleader my parents said the polite version of FFS! Bottom line, Paul never had a number 1 again.
