Vietnam. A television history. Le Minh Dao [produced by WGBH Boston Video]
Description
South Vietnamese Major General Le Minh Dai led the ARVN 18th Division at Xuan Loc, the last major battle of the Vietnam War. He describes leading resistance to the French government, and later to the Diem regime in the mid-1950's following the Geneva Agreement. He outlines why he fought against the Diem regime as revenge for executions, arrests, and land appropriations. He frames the struggle against Diem in both military and political terms, thanking "progressive American people" who came out against the war for boosting the Vietnamese people's morale.
