The Tet offensive was an attack of North Vietnamese on the South Vietnamese. The North Vietnamese took forty-one cities including the capital. After that, the United States and South Vietnamese took back these cities in twenty-four days. Although the North Vietnamese was defeated in that offensive, it considered a victory for them because of the outcome of the offensive on the American government. There were a political, social, and military outcomes of the Tet offensive. Politically, it ended

Prior to the start of our study of the Vietnam Era, I thought that I knew quite a bit about the Vietnam War and the overall time period. But after listening to some guest speakers and reading Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried, I discovered that I knew hardly anything, and that most of what I did know was pretty much insignificant. These past weeks were not only extremely educating, but it was also very interesting. I learned more than I ever thought I would, mostly through the people that know

This early attack did not lead to widespread defensive measures. When the main communist offensive began the next morning the attack was countrywide and well-coordinated, eventually more than “80,000 Communist troops striking more than 100 towns and cities, including 36 of 44 provincial capitals, five of the six autonomous cities, 72 of 245 district towns, and the southern capital of Saigon.” The TET offensive was the largest military operation conducted by either side up to that point in the war

was a visual medium, television depicted the raw horror of war and primarily focused on the negative. In addition, media recognized the potential for television to exploit the war’s sensationalism and to capture the minds of their viewers. The Tet Offensive was noted by many intellectuals

America in the era of the Vietnam War, the Tet Offensive could be defined as such a victory. In this paper I will first define the Tet Offensive in a concise manner, give the arguments supporting an American victory and the reciprocal considering a North Vietnamese victory, and finally make a conclusion supporting the thesis that in the long term, the North Vietnamese defeated the South Vietnamese and by proxy the Americans, peaking at the Tet Offensive. Early in 1968, the North Vietnamese concocted

out more badly. The growth of anti-war movements was caused by a mixture of different factors. The decline of support for the Vietnam War mainly started in 1968. Although antiwar movements in the United States had been occurring before, the Tet Offensive opened the eyes of countless people. General Westmoreland had assured the public that the war was going to come to a swift end soon, that there was "light at the end of the tunnel". But on January

There is perhaps nothing more satisfying than lazing on the couch, munching on one’s favorite snack, and binging one’s life away with entertaining, but mind-numbing television shows and movies. Today, it is quite evident that schooling plays a major role in influencing and shaping the population, but it may in fact be mass media that plays the largest role. To a certain extent, how we choose to perceive the world is entirely in our hands. However, most of the time this is not the case; there are

Vietnamese New Year Traditions New Year in Vietnam is not only a holiday but also the biggest event of the year. It is tradition of thousand years of history. In Vietnamese, New Year means Nam Moi or Tet Nguyen Dan, which also means “the very first morning”. Nevertheless, people commonly call it Tet as its short form. As traditionally, the holiday lasts three days, starting from January first on lunar calendar. However, the spirit of Tet starts on December twenty third, seven days before Tet’s

The human psyche is something that no one can fully understand. Mental diseases and disorders can’t be cured, but only reduced or buried. Dennis Miller joined the military to challenge himself and to see what war is like. When he was in the TET offensive he lost men when the enemies shot down their huey. He shows signs of mental scars after the Vietnam War. We need to show gratitude and respect to all veterans of war. When remembering Vietnam veterans, it is important to consider what they had to
