The Vietcong fought and then melted back into the jungle across the border. One example this week was a battle fought to gain a mountain top, the losses were huge on both sides. When the Americans took the ridge, all that was there were the dead, they stayed on the ridge and then left, so gained absolutely nothing.
The Americans were instructed to shoot anything that moved, which meant unarmed women and children. Body count took priority in order to boost morale for the US piblic.
I have been to
North Vietnam and it is heartbreaking to see children still being born with horrendous defortmities caused by genetic damage suffered by parents/grandparents caused by Agent Orange.
When CeeCee says she was in
NORTH Viet Nam that means she was there
DURING the war. Since 1975 there has been no such thing as
NORTH Viet Nam, only Viet Nam. So, CeeCee, what were YOU doing in
NORTH Viet Nam during the war ? Perhaps you were supporting the communists just like Hanoi Jane ?
Since you are so obviously an expert on warfare, particularly on the war in Viet Nam, why don't you tell us about the 10's of thousands of civilians murdered by the Viet Cong and the women and 10 year old girls raped by the Viet Cong.
CeeCee says the Americans achieved
NOTHING by taking that mountain ridge. The goal of the Americans was not to hold isolated terrain, but to kill enemy soldiers. Objective obtained ! Lots of dead communists !
I have a suggestion, CeeCee, weep for the millions of South Vietnamese who wanted freedom but lost it to the communists. Weep for the innocent unarmed civilians murdered, tortured, and raped by the communists.
Tell the truth CeeCee. Tell about the hundreds of thousands of civilians who fled the communists and came to the Americans as refugees. But you don't want to do that do you ? You would much rather side with the communists and stand against freedom.
With friends like you, we don't need any more enemies.
