It became very clear that Hanoi was in effect strategically running the Viet Cong operation.

The politicians in Washington just had no idea about the complexity of the situation in South Vietnam.

They're asking women to do impossible things. I don't believe women can carry a pack, live in a foxhole, or go a week without a bath.

We'll blast them back into the stone ages!

I do not believe that the men who served in uniform in Vietnam have been given the credit they deserve. It was a difficult war against an unorthodox enemy.

I don't think I have been loved by my troops, but I think I have been respected.

I don't take criticism lying down.
