But everytime you turned on the TV, Westy (General Westmoreland) kept saying, "I need another 100,000 men, and we should be able to wrap this matter up." Westmoreland was a great commander, he was a WWII veteran, a paratrooper (airborne all the way) and did an excellent job in South Vietnam, but everytime that television went on...the news said, "more men...". By 1968 the US was drafting 40,000 men a month! Then Tet hit in '68, and no one believed Uncle Sam anymore.

The document often associated with the credibility gap between what the American people are told and the reality of a situation is the Pentagon Papers. Released in 1971, this top-secret report detailed the U.S. government's decision-making process regarding the Vietnam War, revealing discrepancies between public statements and the actual situation on the ground. The revelations sparked widespread public distrust and highlighted the gap between official narratives and the truth.
