S1 E4 - "The Tet Offensive":
A truce normally marked the Lunar New Year (Tet), but in 1968, the NVA broke the truce in order to launch the largest battle of the war. The Tet Offensive by North Vietnam and the Viet Cong, was one of the largest military campaigns of the Vietnam War, launched on January 30, 1968 against the forces of the South Vietnamese Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN), the United States Armed Forces and their allies.

It was a campaign of surprise attacks against military and civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam. The offensive was a military defeat for North Vietnam though General Westmoreland reported that defeating the PAVN/VC would require 200,000 more American soldiers and activation of the reserves, prompting even loyal supporters of the war to see that the current war strategy required re-evaluation.

The history of U.S. involvement in Vietnam is told in this LionHeart FilmWorks original 7-part documentary series featuring personal stories from veterans and detailing the battles, strategy, and politics of a war that consumed multiple U.S. Presidents.

Produced during the 50th anniversary of the War - we are presenting our series from start-to-finish -- bringing to life with vivid recreations, sound and editing -- For education, entertainment, enlightenment and inspiration. We hope you enjoy and even learn something. Never forget!
