Ah yes, the Tet offensive. In which the US Army and Marine Corps handed the VC and NVA their asses on a platter but the US news agancy reported it as a defeat.

If that knucklehead McNamara had a pair of balls he'd have followed those defeated elements into North Vietnam and and Laos and annhilated the NVA. Chicken-*****.
