but public opinion etc
Never forget Operation Wandering Soul
gooks made the mistake of bombing pearl harbour
@bentech well kids died left and right
of course theyd want to get out

Conscripted armies are a mistake
Volunteer armies are going to be better 100% of the time
from what i learnt in history class, jungle chinks had real nasty tactics
Punji stakes smeared with shit, etc
yes that
IT AINT ME
IT AINT ME
I AINT NO FORTUNATE ONE
Can confirm, they had some pretty rudimentary but effective defenses
Especially considering how slowly you'd die if you got trapped
And the lack of a medic meant certain death
Even leaving things like Public opinion and low moral out of the mix, it can't be denied that American tactics and doctrine just weren't prepared for a guerrilla force that hid among its civilians.

americans just werent made for the jungle
Yeah, they can't even deal with their concrete jungles

Even leaving things like Public opinion and low moral out of the mix, it can't be denied that Americans just weren't fit for starting a war and not just joining one late
Why didn't the usa just send their nogs only then?
Not that I think that's a bad tactic. When you're at war, you do what you need to do to survive. If you can force a country to fuck off just by making everyone in that country feel guilty about it, more power to ya
