    The Vietnamese and Afghans sure did a good job fighting against the US military with small arms and guerilla tactics. Don’t expect that the US military is invincible.

      The Vietnamese had a fuck lot more than small arms. They had all sorts of modern Soviet weapons, including Soviet jets with Soviet pilots.

        You’re thinking of the Korean War. The best pilots the Vietnamese had was Vietnamese - and they were damn good, too.
