Americans were fighting and dying in a tragic no-win War in Vietnam. Communist Occupied China was supplying the North Vietnamese enemy with light weapons, military equipment, at least 4,000 battle hardened officers and 320,000 combat veterans Yet, a Georgia newspaper headline revealed this shocker: "RED CHINESE SOLDIERS TO TRAIN AT FORT BENNING." Yes, Americans were ordered to train the soldiers of a deadly Communist adversary they were already facing in battle during the Vietnam War Who could possibly have approved such leftist lunacy? A nameless and faceless Defense Department spokesman offered a ludicrous rationalization for training soldiers from Communist Occupied China. He said: "The United States Government now regards China as a 'friendly, non-allied' country. "This policy is based upon the assessment that a modernizing, more secure China -- which shares with the United States a common threat the Soviet Union] -- can be an increasing force for peace and stability in East Asia As China has been in Cambodia, Vietnam, Tibet, Korea, etc.?]." Strangely enough, the Department of Defense still secretly listed Communist Occupied China as "hostile to the United States." This was the same lame excuse used years ago by leftists regarding Communist Occupied Russia. Americans were then told the snarling Russian Bear must be aided and appeased to make it "feel more secure." The Soviets had to be fed and armed because "a common threat" was shared. At that time the "common threat" was supposedly Communist Occupied China. Suffice to say, Communist Occupied Russia saw fit in 1985 to sign a very friendly $14 billion trade agreement with America's new found Red Chinese "ally." Marine Lieutenant Robert G. LoPresti had to use worn-out equipment in a field hospital near Pleiku. Spare parts weren't available for the generators at the field hospitals. Nor was the proper medical equipment Wounded marines died unnecessarily as a result. Upon returning to the United States, LoPresti found the Communists were being supplied massive quantities of the same spare parts and equipment needed in Vietnam by American forces He revealed in January of 1969: "The same machinery I couldn't get, the same equipment that would have saved the lives of those marines was declared 'non-strategic' and shipped to the very countries that supplied the rifles and bullets that are killing our men "I remember visiting the Sixty -Seventh Evacuation Hospital in Qui Nhon. "Walking through the intensive-care ward, I saw dozens of soldiers who had been maimed and mutilated. "They had lost arms or legs, they were covered with plastic and swathed in bandages stained deep red by their own blood. "Most were in agonizing pain or under heavy sedation. "I knew that many would not live and others would be crippled and disfigured for life. "Seeing this bitter fruit of our government's madness, I wondered how our politicians would try to explain to these men about sending 'non-strategic' items to an enemy that has pledged to destroy us." The "politicians" never bothered Nor did any of them intend to A new era in treason was begun within weeks after Senator Barry Goldwater lost his Presidential bid in 1964. The radicalized Johnson Administration officially sanctioned a traitorous trip to wheel and deal for expanded business behind the Iron Curtain. The Honorable Ezra Taft Benson correctly charged in 1968: "In the waiting rooms of the Kremlin, American businessmen dream of personal gains and profits while thousands of American boys in Vietnam are slain by Communist bullets made in the USSR." Yes, while the war in Vietnam raged the United States merrily aided, fed, traded with, loaned money to and armed America's avowed Communist enemies throughout the world.
