That documentary hated everyone involved on the American side except for that one soldier in the 50s that everyone in Vietnam loved who was gonna recommend we pull out of Vietnam and then accidentally got shot to death.

The US Army General said that if he was Vietnamese he would’ve fought for the north.

And, it might be my local biases, but somehow the Chicago cops come out looking like the worst group in that era.

Also Ken Burns' Vietnam is terrible. He spends next to no time talking about the conditions of the primary combatants (hint: it's Vietnamese people), or examining the structural issues within South Vietnam that caused the American effort there to fail, all in favor of basically producing A Boomer's History of Vietnam. Then he basically parrots the Republican party line about the war: "we totally won except that those faithless Democrats sold out South Vietnam at the last second".

these posts lend credence to ken burns' prediction that "A lot of people will think I'm a Commie pinko, and a lot of people will think I'm a right-wing nutcase"

ken burns "the war" is worth it for Daniel Inouye and Joe Medicine Crow's stories alone

and Ken Burns' The West is also good for N. Scott Momaday and others & its coverage of how Native Americans got hosed over at every turn

The best I can figure on the See-Panzer is:

":Oh, Panzer of the Lake, what wisdon can you impart?"

"It's better to be empty than full"

Surely there's a pun, rhyme or alliteration I'm missing.

The tank one can’t be translated because it’s more of a malapropism play on words.

Leergut is your empty bottles to recycle.
Leer means empty and gut normally means good (in this compound word it does not though)

So the joke is voll (full) schlecht (bad).

It is only funny to a German speaker in this case.

It would be like saying internet — outer freedom or something.
