War Stuff

In Hanoi you can find the Vietnamese Military History Museum. The Vietnamese are very proud of the fact that they defeated the French in the 1950′s and the Americans in the 1960′s and 70′s. As an American who had friends and family that were involved in the Vietnam war, the whole thing was a bit hard to swallow. That being said, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam exists. Whether the majority of people living there agree with the policies and procedures of their government is moot at the present time. There won’t be any elections there in the foreseeable future.
