A long and brutal war -- The helicopter war.
Summary:
"Warfare had become a way of life for the Vietnamese. They had fought the Chinese, Japanese, French and each other for over a thousand years. The Americans had come to Southeast Asia in an effort to save South Vietnam from Communism and nearly tore their own country apart. This is an overview of the long and brutal war in Vietnam. The televised images of the Vietnam War often featured the UH-1 Huey Helicopter. As they became essential to American's war effort, they also came to represent the war in America. This is the story of the use of the helicopter in combat, the brave men who manned the machines and those who rode them into the fury of Vietnam combat"--Container.
