From Jim Tierney, Alpha Company, as taken from the messageboard about the first moon landing July 20, 1969.
Apollo Landing
I was in VN.
I remember getting a call while we were on ambush. Be advised, United States Military Personnel have landed on the moon.
A week or so later we got the Stars and Stripes and I was reading it. Chu our tiger scout asked what you reading. I told him G.I. land on Moon! He said you all BS!! He did not believe.
I could not believe that he did not understand, although I have met a few Americans who said . It was not real, its all staged.
