Yeah, nobody I know ever referred to the North Vietnamese broadcasts as Tokyo Rose. The announcers were all women and they played music that was way out of date. Not really many GIs listened to those broadcasts because they were quite spooky—psychological warfare. They would read off names of GIs who were supposed to have been killed that day, and then say: Who will be the next American to die in Vietnam? For the record, I was drafted, and after a couple of months there, was against the war.
