My own oposition to Viet Nam was fueled by my reading of the US Army Area
Handbook on Viet Nam, which I read around 1966 or 67. I don't have a copy
now, but a reading of the book implies that the US could not win a war
there and that the Viet people had always been independent and would remain
so...

best, Don
