...monument may satisfy the needs of the Washington Mall but it fails to impart what the war meant to those who fought it. In 1968 newsmagazines printed a photo of a U.S. army tank carrying soldiers wounded in Hue during the Tet offensive. That picture says more about the pain and sacrifice Americans suffered than the proposed "hole in the ground...
