Tet -- 1968

Since were talking Nam, I highly recommended watching this documentary. What a disaster it was for three presidents, Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon. A game of politics. I thought I understood Nam until I watched this. . 58000 plus comrades, rest in peace

I agree Mike. I watched it and it opened my eyes about a few things.

If Washington would have left the war up to the Generals -- it is estimated it would have been over in two months ... they would start with bombing Hanoi, and I mean all of Hanoi ... mining the harbor ... etc. etc.

You would think we would have learned. Nope, this time it's 17 years later and we're still playing death by a thousand cuts... Either pull off the gloves, or pull out the troops. PC wars just get good kids killed.
