  1. Tet Offensive was a tactical failure but a strategic victory that sent shockwaves to the world for Vietnam. Prime examples of, not all failures are bad.

  4.  @johannthedeceitful5968  They used the M16A2 instead of the M16A1 in many scenes. The two rifles look very different and I am surprised how this was allowed to happen.

  8. @johannthedeceitful5968  they are. It's glaringly obvious. Look at the forward irons, handgaurd, and the mag. It looks like a completely different gun with the simple swap from Triangular to Round handgaurd.

  10.  @extremel.z.s3140  Strictly 20 rounds only. The only times 30 round mags were used were for experimental purposes and saw rare use in combat. Plus you can look at all the Nam footage and see 0 30 round mags on M16A1s.

  12. @Clippidyclappidy  no, it is not. You take memes for fact. Statistically the U.S. kills more Vietnamese and sent them packing into the tunnels. This is fact. What is also fact was that regardless of the casualties, Northern resolve and the propaganda machine kept the rural areas of Vietnam kn their side along with massive aid dumping by the PRC and USSR.

  14.  @Jay-jb2vr  Not really because Vietnam is basically a colony of America right now as they produce goods for Americans at a low cost whilst begging the Americans for aid against China in the 21st Century.

  16. @anhvutuan535  I can respond with a single book called Hue, 1968 By Mark Bowden. The guy interviewed several planners of the Tet Offensive. It was meant to spark a revolution. Not send a message. The other statements regarding how the Tet Offensive was made to question the if the U.S. could win came from western media. Not the NVA nor PAVN.
