The Dragon's Breath, The Eagle's Wrath: The Second Pacific War
Excerpts From Words of Battle: A Collection of Quotes of The Second Pacific War
"It is today, August 18th, 1963, at 4:38 PM Eastern Time, that the United States Of America declares a state of war with the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. Should The People's Republic of China choose to intervene on the side of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, a state of war will be declared in turn. Citizens of the United States, the die has been cast. When history remembers our battle against the dark forces of Communism, let them remember the free nations of the world saying in one voice: We will not go into the night! We will live on to battle for freedom and prosperity!" -President of the United States Micheal Vincent DiSalle
"As of August 21st, 1963, the People's Republic of China declares hostilities with the imperialists of the United States of America. Comrades, Workers and Peasants of All countries, it is now that we must unite and defeat the capitalist oppressors once and for all! Long live the international Revolution!" -Chinese Communist Party Chairman Mao Zedong
"It has been decided by the Central Commitee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union that if the revisionists and the imperialists wish to bleed the soil red with their blood, they will do it without the aid of the Soviet people. Presuming nuclear weapons do not come into play, as of August 23rd, 1963, The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics declares a state of neutrality in the conflict between the Chinese and Americans." -Communist Party Chairman Nikita Khrushchev
"Although the Americans have superior firepower, they are no match for us in the jungles of the Vietnamese Highlands. They are noisy, uncoordinated, and reckless. They cannot defeat us." -Unnamed People's Liberation Army soldier in North Vietnam
"We heard the sounds of Whistles and Sirens, and for a moment I thought we were going to be facing another one of the PLA's Short Attacks. What I didn't expect was the entire southern slope and valley beneath to stand up in a sea of khaki clad soldiers. The artillery and air support mowed them down, but thousands more kept coming. We weren't expecting this kind of attack from them. It turns out the stories from Korea may have had a ring of truth." -Corporal Mark Rosenthal,1st Battalion, 8th Infantry Regiment, United States Army, stationed temporarily in Taiwan
"In the two years this damned war has gone on, the Americans have lost over Three Hundred Thousand men, the Koreans and other allies One Hundred Fifty Thousand, and the Chinese several times that combined number. And now, Britain is being pressured into sending troops to this killing zone. Good God in heaven, when will this war end?" -British Prime Minister Harold Wilson
"Despite the sheer amount of death and destruction occurring in Asia as of late, I cannot help but feel there are even bigger problems to address at home. Because of this crusade against Communism and the radical left, I fear that the table of brotherhood will not be set for many years to come." -Martin Luther King Jr.
