It's been over a quarter of a century since the end of the Vietnam War, but memories of the long and divisive struggle remain crisp and vivid -- in Vietnam as well as the U.S. Now historian Christian Appy has done what no one else has done before. He has compiled an oral history of the Vietnam War, told from all sides -- from the generals to the grunts, peasants to protestors.
Retired Col. David Hackworth is one of America's most-decorated soldiers, a hero of Vietnam, who turned a hopeless infantry battalion into one of the finest fighting machines in the war. Now Hackworth tells that story.
