The Tet Offensive
On January 31, 1968, while expecting battle in the remote parts of the country, Americans and South Vietnamese were shocked when NLF and NVA forces struck deep into the heart of South Vietnam's cities. Some of the heaviest fighting took place in Saigon, the capitol itself, but it would be seven long years before the South fully capitulated.
