William Westmoreland
Without censorship, things can get terribly confused in the public mind.
War is fear cloaked in courage.
Vietnam was the first war ever fought without any censorship. Without censorship, things can get terribly confused in the public mind.
The military don't start wars. Politicians start wars.
Television is an instrument which can paralyze this country.
I was participating in my own lynching, but the problem was I didn't know what I was being lynched for.
I see battlefields that are under 24-hour real or near-real time surveillance of all types. I see battlefields on which we can destroy anything we can locate through instant communications and almost instantaneous application of highly lethal firepower.
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.
