Disclaimer: I received a complementary copy of The U.S. Naval Institute on Vietnam: A Retrospective by Naval Institute Press for content production. https://www.usni.org/store/books/holiday-catalog-2017/us-naval-institute-vietnam-retrospective Was the Vietnam War unwinnable in general? Or was the issue that the US government and/or the military failed? Usually, some blame the government, whereas others blame the military, yet, there are also some that note that the war could not be won at all, since the resolve of North Vietnam was too strong and South Vietnam too corrupt. Others point out the failed attrition strategy, the weak combat to support ratio (foxhole ratio), the willingness to limit destruction, rotation policies, etc. Thank you to Ken, Phil & Jack for sending me books from my wishlist that were used - yet not harmed - during the production of this video. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History NOT Visualized is a support channel to Military History Visualized with a focus personal accounts, answering questions that arose on the main channel and showcasing events like visiting museums, using equipment or military hardware. » SOURCES « Disclaimer: I received a complementary copy of The U.S. Naval Institute on Vietnam: A Retrospe
