U.S. soldiers in the Vietnam War struggled with a range of challenges, including the difficult terrain and climate, which made combat operations particularly grueling. They faced an unconventional enemy employing guerrilla tactics, leading to uncertainty and frustration in combat. Additionally, soldiers grappled with the psychological toll of the war, including PTSD and moral dilemmas regarding the conflict's legitimacy and impact on civilians. The lack of clear objectives and support from the home front further compounded their struggles.
