But that is how Ken Burns did a great job with the Civil War by adding how those who suffered at home.

So, you think that the patriotic wives and mothers who believed in their soldiers do not deserve a hearing?

I have a couple of Aunts who are now in their eighties and nineties who suffered terribly during the Vietnam War and they did not protest the war. They suffered it.

Their stories, while compelling in their own way are not the story of the Vietnam war. They are the stories of sad women in America.
Maybe a separate documentary, but there only needed to be enough hone front stuff to illustrate the war itself. THAT is what the series was about.
