Part 2: Turning Point
5/27/2010 | 58m 40sVideo has Closed Captions
More deadly enemy attacks shocked soldiers and fueled animosity towards the war at home.
As the war waged on, scenes of deadly attacks are juxtaposed with the American public's increasing animosity toward the war. The Tet Offensive shocked both soldiers and the world due to previous beliefs that the enemy was incapable of such an effort of massive military force. Veterans reflect on the staggering casualties in Vietnam, and describe their own modes of coping with the reality of war.
