May 28, 2012 / dgcrenshaw / One comment

I remember seeing beer dispensing machines on the docks of the Panama Canal and thought that was cool, but this ever beats that.

Gulf of Tonkin & the Vietnam War

“In the summer of 1964, President Lyndon Baines Johnson needed a pretext to commit the American people to the already expanding covert war in South East Asia.
