That woman in the Godaddy.commerical was hot. The one where she was testifying in front of some committee.

www.superbowl-commercials.com I encoded every video on there (I thought I would have competition) but it's there.
You're missing quite a few.....
Since mine are a bit larger than yours, I figured I'd let you go ahead and upload them... I've done it the past 2 years and am glad the pressure wasn't on me for a change..at least this year I've got them all in sync..Speed
I just got my hands on all of the commercials, ripped from HDTV and encoded in XVID/MP3. Here's a torrent:

I liked it too, but I haven't exactly seen a Vietnam level of dislike for the military lately. Oh well, this isn't P&N
Glad to see the current vets treated with respect.
I was growing up during the Vietnam "war",and was scared that when I was 18
that I would be drafted.
I got lucky,the USA got out of 'Nam before i turned 18,and the draft ended.
Getting all our troops home actually took 2 years+.
I graduated from high school in 1976,and Vietnam was all too real for me,
I had relatives that went to 'Nam.
March 29, 1973 - The last remaining American troops withdraw from Vietnam as President Nixon declares "the day we have all worked and prayed for has finally come."
America's longest war, and its first defeat, thus concludes. During 15 years of military involvement, over 2 million Americans served in Vietnam with 500,000 seeing actual combat. 47,244 were killed in action, including 8000 airmen. There were 10,446 non-combat deaths. 153,329 were seriously wounded, including 10,000 amputees. Over 2400 American POWs/MIAs were unaccounted for as of 1973.
April 29, 1975 - NVA shell Tan Son Nhut air base in Saigon, killing two U.S. Marines at the compound gate. Conditions then deteriorate as South Vietnamese civilians loot the air base. President Ford now orders Operation Frequent Wind, the helicopter evacuation of 7000 Americans and South Vietnamese from Saigon, which begins with the radio broadcast of the song "White Christmas" as a pre-arraigned code signal.
At Tan Son Nhut, frantic civilians begin swarming the helicopters. The evacuation is then shifted to the walled-in American embassy, which is secured by U.S. Marines in full combat gear. But the scene there also deteriorates, as thousands of civilians attempt to get into the compound.
Three U.S. aircraft carriers stand by off the coast of Vietnam to handle incoming Americans and South Vietnamese refugees. Many South Vietnamese pilots also land on the carriers, flying American-made helicopters which are then pushed overboard to make room for more arrivals. Filmed footage of the $250,000 choppers being tossed into the sea becomes an enduring image of the war's end.
April 30, 1975 - At 8:35 a.m., the last Americans, ten Marines from the embassy, depart Saigon, concluding the United States presence in Vietnam. North Vietnamese troops pour into Saigon and encounter little resistance. By 11 a.m., the red and blue Viet Cong flag flies from the presidential palace. President Minh broadcasts a message of unconditional surrender. The war is over.

The version for download on the site mentioned above is not quite right: the perspective is wrong (seems pinched) and the ending is cut off.
