Ever wonder what happened to the weaponry we left in Vietnam?

A guy who seems to know what he is talking about gives a pretty good idea of what happened to the billions of dollars worth of war material we left behind in Vietnam. Some of is still being stockpiled today...like the tanks and some things like the arty and the personnel carriers are still being used. Of the something like 700,000 M16's left some are still used by reserve forces although front line organizations are well equipped with Russian main line weapons.
