Hip-Hop Saved My Life
Hello, I got an assessment task tomorow.. inclass essay on Indochina, I don't know what it's on specifically but i'm guessing something to do with tactics.
Does anyone have any quotes on tactics or reasons for defeat of the south or the Tet offensive as a turning point?
And also who said these quotes:
1. "It became necessay to destroy the town to save it"
2. "the countryside, the jungle and the night belonged to the VC and NVA"
3. "make the war in Vietnam so long, bloody and expensive that American public opinion would turn against it"
4. "kill as many of the enemy as possible with minimum risk to their own forces"
5. "intended to use their overwhelming firepower and resources to make the war too costly for North Vietnam and the NLF to continue fighting"
Give me any quotes, preferably from historians to support my arguments.
Thanks!!
