From the transcript
It's one of the most widely criticized wars in American history, a war that dropped and sent thousands of young men across the ocean to join a brutal fight in unfamiliar terrain, up against an enemy that seemed to be both everywhere and nowhere at the same time. The Vietnam War seemed to many to be no more than a fool's errands, an unwinn able fight.
Sure enough, by the end of the conflict, the mighty U.S. military had been brought to its knees.
Some will argue that the U.S. didn't lose the war per se, but rather got bored and withdrew due to intense public pressure. Well today, we're going to get to the bottom of what happens in one of the Cold War's most infamous conflicts, and why the United States ultimately failed in Vietnam.
