As long as the God-Emperor doesn’t cancel it

Interesting. I’ll be sure to watch out for that. I hope there will also be some period music in it—Stones, Doors, Jefferson Airplane, etc.

It’d be a crime if there weren’t. If there was ever a period of war that was at least partially defined by music, Vietnam was it.

Yeah, I’m really worried that Trump will cancel a documentary.

You know, I was having the exact same thought, but then I started thinking of the Swing Era and WWII. I think the association is just as strong, but you and I didn’t necessarily grow up listening to swing (though I have certainly played a ton of it). I think our aural associations with Vietnam are as strong as those of somebody who was alive during WWII.

Good point. I bet my grandfather would support that notion. He served in Japan in ‘44-45 and has pretty much only ever listened to big band stuff.

After reading 5-6 books on F-105 pilots in the war last year (one of which actually has a YouTube video-what are the odds?), I would really like to see a Ken Burns on this war.
