The majority of Americans were glad when the US withdrew from
South Vietnam. The war was a disaster in terms of American
casualties and opposition to carrying on the war grew stronger by
the day. In retrospect, the US should never have intervened there
or, left when the circumstances were not at the level of chaos.
