Agreed, it's a incendiary mixture but is effective in clearing
cover in dense growth. The fact that it may have also been used to
target the enemy hiding in the growth is a misuse of it's official
purpose.

Nobody really believed that. It was just what they told people, until
the Wash Po put that naked little girl running down the road, on the
cover.
Was LeMay defoliating Tokyo?


I conceded that I was wrong about the use of Napalm in Vietnam after
John provided first hand information on it's use. The images I
recalled
were those of our airplanes dropping it on areas heavily covered with
trees or natural growth that hid the Viet Cong from view.

On the other hand, it did defoliate rather well. LOL



Is that the "Christian" belief? What's funny about dropping napalm that
would earn an LOL? You are a weird little duck.


I wonder if you were in a situation where it was your ass or the
enemy's, what choice would you make?


I wouldn't be LOL'ing it. There's nothing funny about using that stuff
in a wartime setting.

It is if you want to twist it to be Harry. You're really are quite unsuccessful at it though. But if it satisfies you then I suppose to you it's ok.
So now who's the weird little duck?

LOIL is what you get when you type in on an iPhone without wearing your
reading glasses.
What is LOL about using napalm in war, Tim? You think napalm is funny?

I am *sure* you wouldn't be laughing. I suspect you'd suddenly get
religious and pray for a couple of F-4 Phantoms.

John, where was napalm usually dropped?

My Marine buddy said they called it in when they were about to be over
run. The trick was being sure you got the guys chasing you and not get
hit yourself. More than a defoliant, it was a battlefield denial
weapon. Nobody is going to run through the fire to come get you.


I never saw it used.


Me either but my old roomie was a force recon marine. He saw plenty.

I bet the defoliation did not last that long. Tropical plants come
back very fast after a fire.
