The Tet Offensive: A Turning Point in Perception
This chapter examines the historical significance of the Tet Offensive, illustrating its role as a psychological victory that shaped public opinion during the Vietnam War. It connects the tumultuous events of 1968, including the Prague Spring and Robert F. Kennedy's presidential campaign, to the decline of public trust in the American military and presidency. By reflecting on protests, media narratives, and the evolving social climate, the discussion draws parallels to contemporary global issues and the ongoing impact of historical events.
