What was the Tet Offensive and
why was it considered a victory
on both sides?
© Mark E. Damon - All Rights Reserved
A major offensive on Jan. 30,
1968. The North Vietnamese
launched massive attacks on
many S. Vietnamese cities. The
N. Vietnamese had a
psychological victory, they could
attack anytime. We saw it as a
victory because we sent them
back after a few months.
