The Vietnam War (History Channel)

if you want a good history of events this is a good set to buy. if you are a Viet Nam vet you can appreciate this documentary.

unique archived footage of the Vietnam War. as a Veteran of that war i own several documentaries on that event in history. though there are many, this is a much needed version of that era.

Real expression of Combating Soldier's Face and Mind in Vietnam War ! From the first scenes,Anxiopus,Horror-stricken,shrinked American Sodiers due to unidentified multiple,continuous Gun Shot from surronding jungles made scenes real!. From ventured frontline pictures of TV journalist gave different feelings from propogandism. After President Kennedy began sending US.Military Advisor Group, US began to dip into muddy-lake ! In 1964,After the TonKing Gulf Incident, President Johnson started massive North Vietnam bombing with B-52 and Escalation of US.involvment including Combating Infantries. Battle of Khe Sanh by US.Marine remind me The Fall of Dien Bien Phu following Surrender of Frace ! anyway vivid struggle of US.Marine, undermassive Artillery fire,repeated waves of Infantry Assault, inevitable emergecy Air Transport under enemy and drastic massive bombing of B-52 was really undesireable to remaiing families and all Americans. this series by the History Channel is excellent and rare footages which not routinely adhered to chronological orders but case by cases of IMPORTANT BATTLES !

GREAT REFERENCE ON THE VIETNAM WAR. VERY TROUBLING TIMES! AS A SOLDIER DURING THAT PERIOD, I HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF HAVING THE UNIT I WAS IN (6TH ARMORED CAVALRY REGIMENT- FT MEADE MD)- SENT TO THE PENTAGON FOR RIOT CONTROL DUTY IN OCTOBER 1967. THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF ANTI-WAR PROTESTORS ON THE GROUNDS OF THE PENTAGON, AND WE HAD TO RESCUE THE MP'S.

Just because it is educational does not remove the merit of its fifth star. The truth of lies by close presidential advisors is made clear, not diminished. The story of Khe Sanh is clearly told. Any high school American History class can make good use of this documentary to discuss the Iraq war.

I thought this was the same program I watched once on TV. The program had the same opening picture as on the cover of the DVD, so I assumed the contents were also the same. However, This was CBS reporter Roger Mudd introducing the DVD. There were different servicemen being interviewed than what I remember. I was hoping to have obtained the same program. That said, this dvd was pretty good and I would recommend it to anyone.

If you watch this its a great movie but you have to wonder what the hell LBJ was doing fighting the war in the White House he was an idiot cost people their lives . We should have 1 . Just think of people like Hal l Moore he knew so many for nothing .

The History Channel view of the Vietnam War was excellent. I showed to my students in my American Government class (the first part of the war/dvd one. It was very easy to understand. Roger Mudd from CBS news did a great job of narration. Steve Wenzel

流石ヒストリーチャンネルの作品映像と感じました。映像は私の判断でお話すると１９６８年のＴＥＴ攻勢が主で、その映像でもっとも迫力あったのは南ベトナム都市「フエ」の攻防戦映像でした。是非一度見て頂きたい貴重な作品です。

Not too bad, they could have put a lot more truth in this one but they didn't do a complete whitewash of the truth
