Between 1965 and 1969, an American soldier in Vietnam was more likely to end up in a hospital bed from a mosquito than from a bullet. This is the story of how the world's most powerful military fought a war where survival had almost nothing to do with the enemy in front of them.
You'll see how French colonialism, a communist leader quoting Thomas Jefferson, and a fabricated naval attack pulled America into its longest war. You'll learn why disease put more soldiers in hospital beds than combat wounds ever did, and how a group of POWs used a simple tapping code to survive years of solitary confinement. By the end, you'll understand why an army that won almost every battle still lost the war back home.
