The Quiet Mutiny is a documentary about Vietnam. It was made by Australian journalist John Pilger. He interviewed soldiers that had been a part of the Vietnam War for at least a couple of years. The former soldiers all came up with the conclusion that the war was the most miserable experience they have had or ever will have. The interviews showed a few different soldiers who were in there by a weird predicament. They did not just join the army for no reason. They all had their reasons, and they all regretted them.
The most interesting thing in the interview was when they interviewed the man that was convicted of a felony and was supposed to go to jail for three years. He decided that he would just go to Vietnam for two years, which was allowed in this case. When looking back on his decision he said, “I would have rather went to jail instead of going through what I did for two years. Yea jail would not have been so bad” (Interview Part 2). This shows how horrible the war was; no person in their right mind would want to go to jail over something like that. That is until they realized how bad war just is.
