By the Army’s own count, no other weapon destroyed more American armored vehicles in Vietnam than the mine. And a large share of those mines were built from American bombs and shells that never exploded.
In this video, we go through what the Army and Marine Corps recorded: who built these weapons, how much of each one was American, and what it cost.
We cover:
A mechanized battalion that lost 14 carriers in 8 days
What the Army’s own history says about dud bombs
The 1969 Marine order and what “90 percent” really means
An Australian film from 1966 and two shells that failed to explode
The minefield the enemy lifted and used against its builders
