Nothing earth shaking; just slow changes such as age laws concerning voting, or military conscription laws being discarded in favor of an all volunteer military. Security wise, the world felt alittle distrustful of the US, believing the US to be a "paper tiger." Demonstrated in the mid 70's with a US hostage situation in South Central Asia. Militarily, the Vietnam War DID give rise to the best jet aircraft in the world: F14 Tomcats, F15 Eagles, F16 Falcons, F117 Stealth Fighters, B1 & B2 Bombers, and today's F22 Raptor. All of these superior fighting machines were born from the combat experience gained in the skies over North Vietnam by such US jets as the F4 Phantom, F105 Thunderchief, F104 Starfighter, and Firebee UAVs...not to mention U2's, SR-71's, and B52 Stratofortress's.
