I stopped watching after about six episodes. As a Vietnam veteran myself I could hardly relate to the veterans they interviewed. They all seemed to be filled with regret, which I never have been. Frankly the interviews with the VC and north Vietnamese veterans were much more revealing. I did learn some history from it, but I have no idea how much of it is accurate.

thats what i saw..only showing the vets full of regret...in the 1983 doc, Lt David Christian gets pissed..”What gets vets mad more than anything else is when they say we lost the war...we never lost a single battle over there...we kicked their asses..we’d have kicked their asses all the way to Moscow if the politicians would have let us”...

I make it a point to never watch PBS propaganda documentaries. The lefts view that US troops should have guilt for their service in RVN has been in existence since troops started arriving back from that war. This series is the typical US military bad, communism good pablum the commie left pushes. Like you, I have absolutely no regret for offing as many commies I could in combat either then or today.
