Vietnam in HD
Great 17 Points 2011

Graphic, gripping, history communicated with clarity and understandable progression. I can honestly say that this documentary made me fully understand the war, from start to end for the first time. Clarity of interaction with North Vietnam, the Viet Cong, and Cambodia was revealed in a way that …

It’s not a pretty picture. It is full of pretty girls, many shockingly young. The Japanese like pub…
