Tet Offensive
tet offensiveThe 1968 offensive launched by the South Vietnamese was called the Tet offensive. It was called the Tet Offensive because it began in the early morning of 31 January 1968, which is Tết Nguyên Đán, the first day of the year on a traditional lunar calendar and the most significant Vietnamese holiday.
The main impact of Tet was to harden US civilians' resolve against the war. This is because Tet, on the ground, was an absolute disaster for the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese. We had been led to believe the Vietnamese couldn't launch an offensive like this, and when it happened it shocked the Americans.
The Tet Offensive happened in 1968, long after the French withdrew from Indochina. The Tet Offensive was the turning point in the Vietnam War, and was launched against the United States.
