The Vietnam War: Reasons for Failure - Why the U.S. Lost
In the post-war era, Americans struggled to absorb the lessons of the military intervention. About the book:
As General Maxwell Taylor, one of the principal architects of the war, noted, First, we didn't know ourselves. We thought that we were going into another Korean War, but this was a different country. Secondly, we didn't know our South Vietnamese allies... And we knew less about North Vietnam. Who was Ho Chi Minh? Nobody really knew. So, until we know the enemy and know our allies and know ourselves, we'd better keep out of this kind of dirty business. It's very dangerous.
Some have suggested that the responsibility for the ultimate failure of this policy [America's withdrawal from Vietnam] lies not with the men who fought, but with those in Congress... Alternatively, the official history of the United States Army noted that tactics have often seemed to exist apart from larger issues, strategies, and objectives. Yet in Vietnam the Army experienced tactical success and strategic failure... The...Vietnam War...legacy may be the lesson that unique historical, political, cultural, and social factors always impinge on the military...Success rests not only on military progress but on correctly analyzing the nature of the particular conflict, understanding the enemy's strategy, and assessing the strengths and weaknesses of allies. A new humility and a new sophistication may form the best parts of a complex heritage left to the Army by the long, bitter war in Vietnam.
U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger wrote in a secret memo to President Gerald Ford that in terms of military tactics, we cannot help draw the conclusion that our armed forces are not suited to this kind of war. Even the Special Forces who had been designed for it could not prevail. Even Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara concluded that the achievement of a military victory by U.S. forces in Vietnam was indeed a dangerous illusion.
Doubts surfaced as to the effectiveness of large-scale, sustained bombing. As Army Chief of Staff Harold Keith Johnson noted, if anything came out of Vietnam, it was that air power couldn't do the job. Even General William Westmoreland admitted that the bombing had been ineffective. As he remarked, I still doubt that the North Vietnamese would have relented.
The inability to bomb Hanoi to the bargaining table also illustrated another U.S. miscalculation. The North's leadership was composed of hardened communists who had been fighting for independence for thirty years. They had defeated the French, and their tenacity as both nationalists and communists was formidable. Ho Chi Minh is quoted as saying, You can kill ten of my men for every one I kill of yours...But even at these odds you will lose and I will win.
The Vietnam War called into question the U.S. Army doctrine. Marine Corps General Victor H. Krulak heavily criticised Westmoreland's attrition strategy, calling it wasteful of American lives... with small likelihood of a successful outcome. In addition, doubts surfaced about the ability of the military to train foreign forces.
Between 1965 and 1975, the United States spent $111 billion on the war ($686 billion in FY2008 dollars). This resulted in a large federal budget deficit.
More than 3 million Americans served in the Vietnam War, some 1.5 million of whom actually saw combat in Vietnam. James E. Westheider wrote that At the height of American involvement in 1968, for example, there were 543,000 American military personnel in Vietnam, but only 80,000 were considered combat troops. Conscription in the United States had been controlled by the President since World War II, but ended in 1973.
By war's end, 58,220 American soldiers had been killed, more than 150,000 had been wounded, and at least 21,000 had been permanently disabled. According to Dale Kueter, Sixty-one percent of those killed were age 21 or younger. Of those killed in combat, 86.3 percent were white, 12.5 percent were black and the remainder from other races. The youngest American KIA in the war was PFC Dan Bullock, who had falsified his birth certificate and enlisted in the US Marines at age 14 and who was killed in combat at age 15. Approximately 830,000 Vietnam veterans suffered symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder. An estimated 125,000 Americans fled to Canada to avoid the Vietnam draft, and approximately 50,000 American servicemen deserted. In 1977, United States President Jimmy Carter granted a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all Vietnam-era draft dodgers. The Vietnam War POW/MIA issue, concerning the fate of U.S. service personnel listed as missing in action, persisted for many years after the war's conclusion.

Medical marijuana is legal in 20 states and the District of Columbia, but there are still use cases that are very controversial, like medical marijuana for children. Some claim it's a wonder drug for epilepsy, severe autism, and even to quell the harsh side effects of chemotherapy, while others decry pumping marijuana into still-growing bodies. We went to the small town of Pendleton, Oregon, where medical marijuana is legal, to visit Mykayla Comstock, an eight-year-old leukemia patient who takes massive amounts of weed to treat her illness. Her family, and many people we met along the way, believe not only in the palliative aspects of the drug, but also in marijuana's curative effect—that pot can literally shrink tumors.

Maple Ridge Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM 4x4 Winter Event February 2018
Get the details of this exciting promotion here:
This month at our dealership, we are excited beyond measure by the return of the Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM 4x4 Winter Event. First, because you can save up to $11,000 in total discounts on select models, or take advantage of interest rates as low as 0% when you finance on approved credit; and that 0% also includes the stunning, jaw-dropping, brand new, hot out of the box, 2019 RAM 1500!!! And to celebrate the 4x4 winter season, we also have up to $1,000 in 4x4 Winter Event Bonus Cash on select 2018 models.
If you’re an eligible existing truck owner or skilled trades, you could qualify for up to $1,500 in conquest, loyalty or skilled trades bonus cash on eligible 2017 and 2018 RAM 1500 trucks. This could allow you to save up to $10,250 on a 2018 model when you combine your $1,000 4x4 winter event bonus cash and $7,750 in consumer cash, or save up to $11,000 if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on one of the few remaining 2017 RAM 1500 models!
But if your needs are more tailored towards one of our H.D. models, you could get a no-charge diesel engine worth up to $9,445 on eligible 2017 and 2018 RAM twenty-five and thirty-five hundred models. That’s a great deal that will allow you to enjoy the rugged good looks of our RAM H.D. models combined with the smart and functional features of Canada’s most durable heavy-duty diesel pickups.
Now let’s talk Jeep:
It’s hard to talk about a 4x4 winter event without including Jeep, arguably the oldest four-wheel drive mass-production brand on the planet. This month, our dealership is offering you a $1,500 bonus cash on most 2018 Jeep Compass models that you could combine with your $1,000 4x4 Winter event bonus cash and up to $2,200 in consumer cash to help you save up to $4,700. That’s pretty sweet for the perfect 4x4 for your upscale adventures!
Need something a little bigger? You could get up to $5,000 in cash discounts on the 2018 Cherokee or finance the brand new 2019 Jeep Cherokee and enjoy its World Class Craftsmanship with interest rates as low as 0% for 48 months on approved credit. Want something even bigger? You could get up to 6,000 in cash discounts on the Grand Cherokee, a vehicle engineered to make every day legendary.
Prefer the authentic styling, versatility, comfort and technology of the Jeep Wrangler? You’ll be happy to know that during the 4x4 Winter Event you could take advantage of financing as low as 0% on approved credit. That’s an offer I personally haven’t seen very often so if you want to get your hands on the most capable and fuel-efficient Wrangler ever, don’t hesitate!
Now let’s talk minivan:
If you’re favouring Canada best-selling minivan for over 33 years, the Dodge Grand Caravan, you have two choices. The 2018 models will allow you to combine a $1,000 Grand Caravan Bonus Cash with up to $6,000 in consumer cash and save up to $7,000; or the 2017 models will allow you to combine up to $2,500 in ultimate family-van-DVD-bonus-cash with up to $8,500 in consumer cash for a huge total saving of up to $11,000.
But if you prefer the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica, you could combine up to $1,000 in loyalty and conquest, plus up to $2,500 in Pacifica Bonus Cash plus up to $5,000 in consumer cash for up to $8,500 in total discounts. That’s a massive saving for the perfect marriage of form and function for your family!
All the previous cash incentives will allow you to choose the Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM model you truly desire and get a fantastic price point. But if you prefer the alternative to finance at 0% instead of the consumer cash, you could take advantage of up to $3,750 in finance cash discount and get 0% financing, on approved credit, on nearly all 2017 and 2018 Dodge Grand Caravan, Jeep Cherokee, and RAM 1500 models. Just pass by the dealership and we’ll crunch the numbers for both scenarios and figure out which one is the most advantageous for your life goals and your budget.
And don’t worry if your credit is less than perfect. We have the expertise to help you rebuild your credit history while driving a quality Chrysler Dodge Jeep or RAM and have access to special low finance rates up to 84 months that will help you perfectly fit the payment in your budget.
