Unit 4 ~ Vietnam

The Vietnam War saw one of the world's superpowers, the United States, unable to defeat a far inferior, yet well organised, enemy in the Vietnames Communists. As the US set about trying to "roll back" Communism in Asia, they became more involved in a conflict that cost over 50,000 lives.
