I'm now a 74-year-old Vietnam vet who was fortunate to have served even further behind enemy lines than you have. There used to be an industry catering to servicemen changing into civies as soon as possible after getting of base. Like you, I have gotten more 'thank yous' in my last 5 to 10 years than the previous 40 years. Thanks for sharing... serving God until He comes again,

I love these stories. No two are alike. This guy is an amazing storyteller. Thank you, Paul Cimmino!

Paul... write a book... put everything in it.

I actually remember the smell of napalm. I got oversprayed by Agent Orange too. 30% disability. 50 years, but no adverse effects, thank God. Oddly, I have a PhD in psychology too. Many past patients have died prematurely. The war still isn't over for a dwindling number of survivors. Thanks.

His story was one of the best at bringing out the funny parts of the journey through war.

Shout out to Paul.......Sylmar, CA my stomping grounds. I just started listening to the Vietnam voices. My brothers are Vietnam Veterans. One was Army infantry 70. He has it all stuffed down. He never got over "the wall" for help. I would love for him to here these tapes. He's in good hands......we own a home together. πͺβ€βππΊπΈ Special blessing for the Vietnam Veteran β€β€β€β€β€πππππββββπΊπΈ

Iβve listened to many of these interviews Paulβs interview adds a unique perspective
-
I have to admire the bravery of the men and women who went through the Vietnam war. Many of them never even wanted to go. Others joined. I think they all found it was different than what they expected. Thanks for your service.

What a great interview, respect. Only took about a minute to figure out Mr. Cimmino is a very intelligent gentleman, only reinforced throughout the rest of the interview.

Fantastic story And it goes to prove that even those who served in Vietnam and had a job in the rear were in a dangerous place also. As all of us who made it back no matter what your job was it will always be, as he said, in your heart. It will always be in my heart as it is in his even after 50 years, still brings up tears at times. Your never too old to cry.

Thank you for your service Paul. You are the last of the true heros.

When I served in the Rhodesian army we had a saying Hurry up and wait. .

This guy's a very intelligent human being. It is amazing after all the war he's been exposed to. He's a great asset to the State of California & the Italian American people. I loved hearing him give his story. I thank him for serving our country.
