Remembering end of Vietnam War 50 years later
JESSUP, LACKAWANNA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — Wednesday marked 50 years since the final day of the Vietnam War: A conflict that claimed the lives of more than 58,000 Americans over a nine-year period.
While US Involvement in Vietnam ended in 1973, the war as a whole went on until 1975.
For many of those who served, the experiences they had in Vietnam live on forever.
For Judge Thomas Munley, it's no different.
"I think about it every single day. I think about the soldiers that I lost, my friends, that never came back alive," Judge Munley explained.
