It's the best war that never happened.

Let's start a new one. Thermals and LIDAR make it EZ PZ

If Jow Forums wanted to start a PMC and liberate a third world country from communism, I think it'd be a tossup between Vietnam and "Zimbabwe".

Vegetation actually hinders the use of thermals.

More modern NV would've helped a lot though. And better PGMs. Like Paveway IIs. And F-117s ignoring missiles left and right.

>not doing Bay of Pigs 2

Physically obliterating Communism from all corners of the world should be the US military's primary mission. Bring back M81 woodland and old school M16's.

What good is a tunnel with no entrances or traffic going in/ out. That's what the fucking imagery is used for. I used it in college to find paths and crude foundations from the French and Indian War in a laurel hell. Pic related is a pre-Columbian ruin. I'll geospatial analyze for free at night if it means shitheads get airstriked, we've done it here before lol.

Oh hell yeah man, I love wars. So comfy. Imagine being a soldier. You could just go out there on a government sponsored camping trip and shoot some dumbass commies for free while wearing cool gear. Me? I'd wear a gas mask all the time with my loadout, makes me look s/k/ary as fuck. When you get tired of killing chink commie shitters, you can try to kill some soviet Spetsnaz elite operators and rank up quicker than normal.
I guess I'll just have to play some video games since I was born too late to join a real war and be a soldier. And no, fighting for Jews in some shithole doesn't count as a real war. I guess I'll just have to wait for WW3 and hope I'll lose some weight before it happens.

>should have been

That implies the US had the ability to do so.

Given how utterly rock bottom morale within the Army and civilian support for the war were by the late '60's, trying to drag the war out another decade would have most likely resulted in full-blown mutinies and draft riots and rebellions at home.

Also, there would have been no money for a lot of the toys introduced in the late 70's/early 80's. Vietnam War had already pretty much ruined one round of equipment modernisation due to sucking up too much funding by that point, after all.

Jow Forums starting a PMC and trying to "liberate" a third world country from communism wouldn't acheive jack shit other than improving the board quality by killing off the more stupid posters.

Shit was cool to watch.

This. It would've destroyed the military and very likely, the country itself.

What's hilarious is Amerisharts genuinely believe they could have won the Vietnam war.

You fucking fat retards couldn't even win in Iraq and Afghanistan and neither the mujahideeen nor the arabs can even come close to holding a candle to the VC.

The fatnik delusions are incredible. If the war had gone on till the 8s the fucking VC would have swum across the Pacific and be digging tunnels under Kansas City.
