There would have been battles like the one in the video. Base assaults were a thing. It was very rare that they happened during the day, though. Often they started with infiltrating pioneer units to clear minefields, etc, with very strong recon, and often under artillery cover.

The NVA was a very competant force on the whole. Organisationally experienced, and highly commited. Not as technologically advanced as the US, but they had what they needed to succede. Obviously organisationally they had excellent fieldcraft, even if individuals varied. They'd also make heavy use of infiltrators disguised amongst the local population, except in some cases like against the ANZACs, that banned all Vietnamese from a wide border around their bases.

Vietnam showcased quite a wide variety of battles and encounter types. Not a lot of armour, or wide open manuver battles, but just about everything else, including urban fights. Helicopter mounted TOW missile teams hunting tanks had it's origins in Vietnam as well.

Not that guy, but there was this old game. Early 2000s. Vietcong. Hell of a game. Really nailed the Vietnam experience, so to speak. None of this Call of Duty shit, but it was still a fun action game on top of it's immersive design.

Is he killing the rape victim? Why is a american raping a male viet-cong man of all things, there were women, and I don't see him raping a dude in the open, even if that was his thing.

Frank later drowns the rapist while he's getting a drink of water. He explains to grunt that watches him do it that if he just turned her over to the spooks they'd have raped her, got no info from her, and just shot her the same and if he calls a medic in for her he'll loose all the trust of his men

Needs more artillery fire and air strikes against the enemy.

US lost Khe Sanh in the end. First time in history US ever abandoned a major operations base in the middle of a war to the enemy.

Khe Sanh proved that even with inferior weaponry and artillery, the NVA was capable of maintaining increasingly even casualty ratios against US forces. US advantage was diminishing and the NVA commanders were superior in strategy to their US counterparts.

Khe Sanh was the moment the US Army accepted that they could no longer win the war. A few months later the Tet Offensive proved that to the Public.

literally nothing you just said is accurate, if anything Garth is completely cynical about all political systems, and he is totally unafraid of showing the violence and degeneracy of blacks-frank mows down dozens of stereotypical unintelligent, drug-dealing gangsters. White men are depicted as everything from bold soldiers to rapists to scheming mafioso, but not as some monolithic block of cuckdom-Frank is white and he's literally the most dangerous person on earth. Nick Fury is the most alpha motherfucker on earth, and he's white as a bedsheet in the mainstream marvel universe.
>>
>>28439848
Wrong.

What is this wordbending
>maintaining increasingly even casualty ratios
Their DEAD were still higher than our dead + wounded combined, and that's counting all our damn allies that were there too.

We lost for pulling out too soon, like we always did, because some people were upset with what they saw on TV.

Now should we have been in Vietnam in the first place, that is a different story.

The whole domino theory was fucking silly, communism, at least of the heavy handed-lenist type, is strangled the minute that capitalism can start to radically raise standards of living in an area. When most of the rest of asian started its long, steady upward economic path, and the brutality and unfreedom of marxism became more apparent, the communist movements throughout asia had to either stick to leninism and become well-organized and violent but ultimately fringe political cults, or reject the anti-democratic nature of mainstream marxism and actually treat the people of nations like human beings instead of classes. The only communists that have done that are in Nepal, and they've succeeded in turning that country into the most left-wing place on earth, literally all three of the main political parties are either Marxist or social democratic, which is fucking weird as shit.

>the Punisher who has been around since 1974 has only been written by one person
kek, but i assume you're just talking about Garth Ennis

>whitey is always the biggest bad
so, there is a minority origination that can challenge Frank? Castle has killed more dindus than Zimmerman has shitted. in MAX he fights a lot of mafia and Russians. them being white must be part of some leftest white guilt conspiracy

>white guys are always secretly gay/ pedos/ cucks/ or have small dicks
there was a spy that was bisexual but he was just a sociopath that used sex as a tool and there was a white couple that used their kids in cp. never saw dick the first

>i'll just pull something out of my ass about how gang members are depicted
black gang members are not really dangerous to Frank because they're stupid gang members that hold their guns sideways. so, are you advocating for or against them?

>all the white women are fucking black guys
see that thing about looking at little white dicks

>barracuda, is so stereotypically black its cringe worthy
>drives a classic Cadillac with whitewalls and hates rap music
so stereotypical and what's your obsession with dicks?

>police are always either ineffectual or corrupt
you need the first for the premise of 'superheros' to work and the later is a case by case basis

>businessmen are bad
the only corporation that turned up was in Slavers and it was front for white slavery. what slav businessman isn't corrupt?

>the military is out of control and evil
>some US generals plan to 9-11 Moscow as a diversion and Russia was mean in Afghanistan
yup totally devoid of real life possibilities

5550 KIA vs 3500 KIA + 250 captured

You don't know anything about US doctrine in Vietnam or their expectations if you think those are good numbers.

Losing Khe Sanh utterly devastated US strategy in the war. It was the point at which they could no longer recover from strategically.

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McNamara_Line

After this point US had no other strategies left, they tried everything else already. The only thing they could do was continue to sit there and get shot at without winning any real objectives. People who insist 'We should have just stayed there longer' have 0 clue about what they are talking about and have probably never read any of the declassified military reports on the matter. US had no real 'long-term' strategy to win after that point in time, so staying in Vietnam even longer would not have achieve anything but more dead servicemen.

You had to tread extremely lightly through the level if you want any chance at surviving.
