This 1970s film narrated by renowned actor, Glenn Ford,
examines how the Vietnam War differed from previous wars in
which the United States engaged. Scenes explore how a
conflict with no conventional battle line (a guerrilla war)
had its unique difficulties, and how our mission in Vietnam
was to win "the hearts and minds" of the Vietnamese people.
