How the US Used “Wandering Souls” to Fight the Viet Cong
Imagine the dense Vietnamese jungle at night, the air thick with humidity and the only sounds the chirping of unseen insects. Then, a bloodcurdling scream pierces the silence, followed by the anguished cries of a child. It’s enough to send shivers down the spine of even the bravest soldier. But what if these weren’t just ordinary sounds? What if they were the ghosts of fallen comrades, haunting the battlefields of the Vietnam War? This chilling scenario was the driving force behind Operation Wandering Soul, a controversial psychological warfare campaign employed by the U.S. military in an attempt to demoralize and weaken the enemy.

Confession of the Day
Bf doesn’t look at me during sex
I know he’s a highly visual person because he used to watch porn multiple times a day before he told me he cut back (after multiple arguments) because it was causing issues in our bedroom and serving as a crutch not to cheat on me, which led to attempts to cheat. He even took videos of him and his ex doing the same positions, so yes, highly visual.
He used to look at my legs, my stomach, and my face during sex and tell me my expressions turned him on, but I guess that was during the “honeymoon” period of him trying to reconnect with me.
