Vietnam veteran

A Vietnam veteran is someone who served in the armed forces of participating countries during the Vietnam War.

The term has been used to describe veterans who were in the armed forces of South Vietnam, the United States armed forces, and countries allied to them, whether or not they were actually stationed in Vietnam during their service. However, the more common usage distinguishes between those who served "in country" and those who did not actually serve in Vietnam by referring to the "in country" veterans as "Vietnam veterans" and the others as "Vietnam-era veterans". The U.S. government officially refers to all as "Vietnam-era veterans".

In the English-speaking world, the term "Vietnam veteran" is not usually used in relation to members of the communist People's Army of Vietnam or the National Liberation Front.

South Vietnamese veterans

Although exact numbers are difficult to ascertain, it is safe to say that several million people served in the South Vietnamese armed forces, the vast majority of them in the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN)—between 1956 and 1975. It is known that during 1969–1971, there were about 22,000 ARVN combat deaths per year and the army reached a peak strength of about one million soldiers during 1972. The official number of anti-communist Vietnamese personnel killed in action was 220,357.

Vietnam (UK /ˌvjɛtˈnæm, -ˈnɑːm/, US ⁱ/ˌviːətˈnɑːm, -ˈnæm/;Vietnamese: Việt Nam [viət˨ næm˧]), officially the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (SRV; Vietnamese: Cộng Hòa Xã Hội Chủ Nghĩa Việt Nam ( listen)), is the easternmost country on the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia. With an estimated 90.5 million inhabitants as of 2014, it is the world's 14th-most-populous country, and the eighth-most-populous Asian country. The name Vietnam translates as "Southern Viet" (synonymous with the much older term Nam Viet); it was first officially adopted in 1802 by Emperor Gia Long, and was adopted again in 1945 with the founding of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam under Ho Chi Minh. The country is bordered by China to the north, Laos to the northwest, Cambodia to the southwest, and Malaysia across the South China Sea to the southeast. Its capital city has been Hanoi since the reunification of North and South Vietnam in 1975.

'Vietnam Veteran' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:

Justice Potter Stewart: You okay, Harry?::Justice Harry Blackmun: I know you're all concerned with what you perceive as my indecisiveness, you think I can't make up my mind. It's not that, it really isn't. It's that the issues in this case are so grave, you answer one question, even tentatively you think you're safe, then two more questions appear on the horizon. As I see it, I can make a final judgement until all the facts are in. Until all the arguments have been analyzed.::Justice Potter Stewart: But it's not a math problem, Harry. You wanna find out one answer. Doesn't work that way.

Kevin Connolly: Is he sick? I know he has back problems but is it something more serious than that?::Mrs. Paige: He has cancer, Mr. Connolly. He's a very private man. We would ask you to respect that.::Kevin Connolly: Yes, ma'am.

Covert Becker: You must be feeling pleased with yourself. You crossed the line, Connolly. Ask anybody.

Chief Justice Warren Burger: John, you have betrayed me. These are your last days on the court. What on Earth has taken hold of you? It's Bill Brennan, isn't it? He's the one who's been twisting your arm.::John Marshall Harlan: [laughs] Twisting my arm? Really?::Chief Justice Warren Burger: Don't you patronize me, John!

Hugo Black: John Harlan is one of the few people who can convince me that there is such a thing as a Good Republican.

Chief Justice Warren Burger: John Harlan has become an apologist for the Black Muslims.

Justice William J. Brennan Jr.: 5 to 3 against Ali. John Harlan split of side in the opinion. C'mon, boys. Let's go to lunch. We can drown our sorrows.

Plot: When the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq began, Vietnam veterans were especially troubled by the frightening parallels with their own experiences. No Unwounded Soldiers follows a group of Vietnam War veterans, and the twin sister of a deceased veteran, as they explore through work in drama therapy the ways that war changes those who fight. It shows the persistent ripple effects those changes have on them, on their families, and on their communities. And it shows that healing is possible, especially through the arts. As they work to create an original work of drama, this group of veterans explores the universality of war's impact on those who serve, and they share their emotional and psychological struggle to find healing after war. Joined in the documentary by two veterans of World War II and a veteran of the Iraq conflict, they reach out to help new veterans and the public at large understand the lasting effects of war.

[showing Mitch photos of himself with a prostitute]::Bill DeVasher: Not just screwing, Mitch. All sorts of intimate acts, oral and whatnot, that can be particularly hard for a trusting wife to forgive and IMPOSSIBLE to forget.

Avery Tolar: How'd you find that out?::Bill DeVasher: What do you think I am around here, a fucking night watchman?::Avery Tolar: I get confused sometimes.::Bill DeVasher: Well, don't.

Ray McDeere: How'd you land a job like that with a brother in the slammer? [Mitch says nothing] I get it. Don't worry, I'd probably have done the same thing.::Mitch McDeere: You're always there for me, Ray...::Ray McDeere: I'd have done the same thing. You think I want to tell the guys around here that I got a brother at Harvard?
