Videos While our Vietnam War section concentrates on the time period from 1960 to 1975, you will find material on the French involvement as well as the events after the fall of Saigon. From an American viewpoint, the Vietnam War is not well understood. Even though it was part of the American daily life for some fifteen years, there is no consensus as to its purpose and result. Some Americans believe that Vietnam was a national policy blunder costing some 58,000 American lives and billions of tax dollars. That it divided the country at a time when it most needed to be unified leaving scars that are yet to be healed. Others believe the war was a noble cause similar to the United Nations effort that kept South Korea free. A brief look at the war itself reveals that it started out rather benignly with the sending of American advisors to assist the South Vietnamese train its growing army. The stated objective was to allow the South Vietnamese Army to resist aggression from the North and to preserve their sovereignty as a democratic nation. As time passed and American administrations changed, the roles changed until it became an American led and financed conflict. The number of American combat troops increased dramatically and a massive air war was executed in an attempt to interdict the escalating resupply of the North Vietnamese divisions in the South. The South Vietnamese received financial aid from a number of nations; and Thailand, South Korea, the Philippines, Australia and others contributed manpower. However, the war was predominately an American show.

What I Can Do - I Will -
A tribute to Korean and vietnam war POW/MIA/KIA, but dedicated to all american veterans.
http://www.faraway-soclose.org/

Extractions: The name I received in response to my request was James Arthur Harwood , a Sergeant in the US Army (5th Special Forces) who went Missing in Action in South Vietnam on 15 January 1971. There was another man lost in the same incident, a First Lieutenant by the name of Gerald Francis Kinsman ; I decided to adopt him too. I built remembrance pages for both the men on my 'have fun, catch all' website that, amongst other things, included cyber pet adoptions and personal photos. Later on that year, I decided to create a site just for the guys. While I added to the site on occasion, it was not large, and I thought that with those two men, "that was that." Wrong. Around January or February of 1999, I began to think about the POW/MIA issue some more, and decided to see if there were any women I could adopt. I learned that there was one, a civilian (missionary) surgeon named Dr. Eleanor Ardel Vietti

Historians in the United States have struggled for years to find a fair and balanced way to teach students about the Vietnam War - and the atrocities committed there by U.S. soldiers. But on this 30th anniversary of the American pullout from Saigon, objectivity may no longer be the greatest challenge facing teachers. Ethical Culture Fieldston School on a spring day That is the verdict of Jim Cullen, who teaches 16 and 17-year-old students at the Ethical Culture Fieldston School - a private academy in Bronx, New York. He specializes in 20th-Century U.S. History, and so a significant part of his course focuses on the Vietnam War.

Extractions: Conversations with History blog The Vietnam War drove two presidents from office and destroyed the U.S. foreign policy consensus. This research gallery highlights the complex environment in which decisions were made that shattered a generation's perspective on America's role in the world. In their reminiscences, leading players in the drama and analysts of the events conjure up a fascinating portrait of the causes and consequences of U.S. decisions. What emerges is a rich tapestry where the pressures of global and domestic politics, the implications of a flawed strategy, and the influence of human weakness and moral blindness come together to produce a tragic turning point in the history of U.S. foreign policy.
