Thomas F. Barton

Over thirty years after the U.S. lost the war in Indochina, my generation is coming to know the history of the GI resistance in Vietnam.As documented by David Cortright’s "Soldiers in Revolt", first published in 1975, and David Ziegler’s 2005 documentary film "Sir No Sir", the movement of soldiers and sailors against the occupation of Vietnam was pivotal in ending U.S. Imperialist aggression against the Vietnamese people.The GI Movement was also instrumental in advancing reforms to the military command structure.
