The release of U.S. POWs begins in Hanoi as part of the Paris peace settlement. The return of U.S. POWs began when North Vietnam released 142 of 591 U.S. prisoners at Hanoi’s Gia Lam Airport. Part of what was called Operation Homecoming, the first 20 POWs arrived to a hero’s welcome at Travis Air Force Base in California on February 14. Operation Homecoming was completed on March 29, 1973, when the last of 591 U.S. prisoners were released and returned to the United States.

and what was achieved from the conflict
Profit.
We got a whole lotta heroin out of the golden triangle…and a bunch of young American men addicted to it.
So there’s that.
… and lots and lots and lots of southeast asian refugees in Southern California …
In Garden Grove, CA, there was a popular bumper sticker (in the 80s) that read “Will the last American to leave Garden Grove, please lower the flag?”
Be sure to enlist!
Thanks to people like John McCain, an unknown number of MIA/POWs were abandoned, likely to be killed. Disgusting.
John McCain, former POW, permanent POS.
Kissinger
I never got to meet my Uncle but he taught me a lot. He never came home.
I have only seen 1 picture of him and yet he is still vivid in my mind.
He believed in something that I never will.
He was lied to and never had a chance to learn the lesson that he taught me.
Government is the real enemy of all people everywhere.
Knowing that one truth has served me well.
If I ever get a chance to meet him, I will give him thanks.
He is in some strange way a hero to me.
