The Vietnam War was one of the first wars in American history the the majority of the public didn't approve of. To the public, there was no clear purpose (or at least an unclear purpose), like during WW2, when the clear purpose was to defeat the Nazis. Therefore, for the first time, soldiers doubted what they were fighting for, and when they came back, they were looked down on and even hated.
