No, not at all, he states how the North was defeated and their heavy losses. And yes SD, it is well worth the time to watch it.

I'll watch it then.
I was in my 4th week of Boot Camp when the truce was signed.

Burns’ movies are liberal hack jobs. He’s an America hater. I managed to gag my way through the Civil War series he did (really the War of Southern Secession).

no one is listening to reasoned opinion because Burns can’t possible do anything right.

I watched the 9-11 part VN documentary years ago. Burns brings in the North explanation of tactics and effect in Hanoi like none I’ve seen. His coverage of polices in the US and SBVN seem spot on to me. I saw McNamara Fog of War and I’ll take Burns over that.

He’s soldiers comment about the battles for hills and cities is riveting. Comments from family members back home what i recall from my friends families.

His body of work is impressive from baseball to Jazz to the wars. he’s young and doing service to the country that no one has done and he is using modern technology to do it.

Conservatives pool your money and see of you can get close to what he does. Very doubtful. People are staring to die from VN and soon many testimonies will disappear. He serves a valuable service in recoding these events with actual participants.

I look forward to the next one.

I plan to watch it. Vietnam has been a part of our military history that I avoid. But I loved the WWII documentary he did. It was really good.
