General William Westmoreland led the "search and destroy" missions during the Vietnam War. His strategy aimed to engage and eliminate Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army forces through aggressive ground operations. Westmoreland's approach was characterized by a focus on attrition, seeking to weaken the enemy by inflicting heavy casualties. This strategy, however, faced criticism for its effectiveness and the impact on civilian populations.
