Description by OLDIES.com:

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it, and the story of the wars fought in Vietnam from the 1940s to the 1970s is one from which many lesson can be learned. This premium collection, comprising a feature-length DVD, a 24-page history of the conflict, and a set of replica memorabilia and battle maps pays tribute to those brave soldiers who fought in a war that was far from straightforward, far from easy and far from home.

VIETNAM: THE TWO WARS - DVD: It was the war without fronts, where US troops faced enemies without uniforms who could seemingly disappear from the battlefield with trace. America's fight involved not only 'search and destroy' strategies and aerial bombardment, but also a battle for the hearts and minds of the local population, not to mention those watching events unfold back home. This eye-opening documentary provides a compact yet thorough overview of the Vietnam War, featuring extensive use of archive footage to ensure the lessons learned at such great cost will never be forgotten.

VIETNAM: THE WAR THAT CHANGED AMERICA - 24 PAGE HISTORY: The Vietnam War impacted on American life for the greater part of two decades and cost the lives of over 58,000 U.S. troops. It damaged America's international reputation, cause protests right across the country and, despite initial public support, led to a growing distrust among American citizens for their own government. Most of all, it provoked nationwide soul-searching and profoundly altered the nation's attitude to what constituted a rightful, justified war. This lavishly illustrated, and well researched booklet is the story of the war that changed America.

WAR MEMORABILIA & BATTLE MAPS: Researched and collated from original materials at The National Archives and Records Administration in Washington, DC, this collection of rare memorabilia offers a unique personal and military insight into the war in Vietnam. Included are US Army battle maps from engagements in Pleiku, near the Cambodian border, and from the Tet Offensive; a telegram from US Army Intelligence warning American troops of an expected enemy attack; a soldier's letter home to his family from Vietnam; and a letter signed by President Nixon praising the 1st Brigade, 4th infantry Division for extraordinary heroism during a battle against the Vietcong in May 1967.
