And the revisionist history books forget to say that the Republican Nixon ended American involvement in the Democratic War in Vietnam ramped up by LBJ who hog tied the US military with McNamara at every turn. Generals should give orders to brigades, not rifle squads. And the only good enemy is a POW or deceased.

Yeah, it's always referred to as Nixon's War as if he started the whole gd thing.
Not only did LBJ increase our involvement massively, he used the phony Gulf of Tonkin fake incidents as justification.
