Antikrigsmusik, en ny musikgenre der opstår
i USA under vietnamkrigen i 1960`erne The Vietnam War was fought by the United States between 1965 to 1973 |
This genre of American music did not really exist before the Vietnam War. It was created mostly by Vietnam War veterans and almost all has been self-produced. This is the first attempt to put most of it in one place and make it accessible to all. Musikeksempler1: http://users.rcn.com/borneo/warmusic.ram. |

Webbaseret undervisningsmateriale: The Vietnam War was fought by the United States between 1965 to 1973. It was the longest war the country had ever engaged in. The Vietnam War was unique in one other regard: It gave rise to the largest and most successful antiwar movement in United States history. In a sense, the war in Vietnam could be described as a two front war - a war in Vietnam with war being waged with tanks, guns and bullets - and a "war at home," fought on the streets and campuses throughout the nation. : http://library.thinkquest.org/27942/indexf.htm%3ftqskip=1.

HISTORY The owner of a chain of supercenters in Michigan would hardly seem a match for Henry Kissinger in a debate over the Vietnam War, but at the 1995 Gerald R. Ford Foundation board meeting, the former Secretary of State indeed lost a heated argument on the subject to one Fred Meijer of Grand Rapids. At issue was an 18-step metal ladder, utterly unremarkable except that in April 1975 thousands of desperate South Vietnamese, fleeing capture by the invading North Vietnamese for freedom in the U.S., had clambered up its sturdy steps onto the roof of the U.S. embassy in Saigon and into American helicopters perched there. To Meijer, the gray ladder was an uplifting symbol of hope; to Kissinger, it was a grim reminder of the U.S. failure in South Vietnam that had cost more than 58,000 American lives. When a cabal of South Vietnamese military men indicated they
were about to stage a coup against Diem, Ambassador Lodge said
the U.S. would not stand in their way. http://www.time.com/time/asia/magazine/2000/0424/history.vietnam.html |
We dedicate this historic website to our fallen warriors In the early hours of 29 April 1975, the grim and undeniable reality became apparent to the highest-ranking American official in Vietnam. For weeks, an uneasy tension had mounted in Saigon as the North Vietnamese Army began an aggressive and largely unabated sweep down the coast of the South China Sea. Da Nang had fallen less than a month prior, prompting a panic-stricken exodus of South Vietnamese soldiers and civilians alike. http://www.fallofsaigon.org/leatherstory.htm.

During the last two weeks of April, the embassy began evacuating personnel via Ton Sun Nhut airport and a guard detachment, including Judge and McMahon, was sent up to guard the airport. Many of the Marines had arrived in Vietnam just a few months
or even weeks earlier. Most had no combat experience. And since
the Paris Peace Accords had ended the war in January, 1973
it had been two years since an American combat death in Vietnam.
In an attack on the morning of the 29th, Judge and McMahon were killed. The attack also rendered the airport unusable for the rest of evacuation, meaning the rest of the evacuation effort would have to be staged from the embassy compound itself. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2000/04/26/national/main188943.shtml. |
