For many decades, the Vietnam war was the central drama on the stage of southeast Asia. The Vietnamese had fought the Japanese and French Colonial troops to a standstill. The Viet Cong and North Vietnamese were prepared to fight a total war. The United States had become involved to save South Vietnam from eminent destriction at the hands of the communist insurgents. American leaders were becoming increasingly concerned with the failure of the military to win the war for the hearts and minds of the Vietnamese people. Eventually, the negative aspects of the war spilled over into America, touching off a wave of riots and provoking a crisis of social upheaval that rocked the foundation of American society. Few Americans who lived through these times will ever forget this period of drastic change. This was and intensely publicized war, the first televison war that came roaring into the front rooms of America every night. Covering this period, this set contains combat film reports and live newsreel-type stories on the bitter fighting and activities in the support areas. Some of this footage was intended to be seen only by commanders and combat troops. This seven part video saga features live action film footage of key units: Marines, Army, Navy, and Air Force. Also, armored cavalry, special forces, signal corps, medical service personnel, combat engineers, air cavalry, combat infantry and air recovery teams are shown in these dramatic films. These stories give you an inside view of everyday life and death with combat units in war-torn Vietnam during on of the most important and influential conflicts of our time.
