Some of the serious problems with the Vietnam War... hum? I would say that the South Vietnamese as a whole did not want us there. The jungle fighting was completely different than anything we had done except for perhaps WWII South Pacific. The war was between North and South Vietnam but the major players were The Soviet Union, China and the US. These countries made the war into a different animal than it would have been with the advanced weaponry, training and troops.

The support for the war in the US was another serious problem. It is very hard to sustain troops in a war that the population back home doesn't support. It turned out that Agent Orange was a serious problem with serious repercussions! There were so many serious problems with this war that it amazes me!

Vietnam was a war that we could not have won. All we did was to slow the spread of communism for awhile and give the youth in our country a reason to protest, rebel and morally disintegrate.
