🗄️ About:
The Vietnam War exacted an enormous human cost: estimates of the number of Vietnamese soldiers and civilians killed range from 966,000 to 3 million. Some 275,000–310,000 Cambodians, 20,000–62,000 Laotians, and 58,220 U.S. service members also died in the conflict. The end of the Vietnam War would precipitate the Vietnamese boat people and the larger Indochina refugee crisis, which saw millions of refugees leave Indochina, an estimated 250,000 of whom perished at sea. Once in power, the Khmer Rouge carried out the Cambodian genocide, while conflict between them and the unified Vietnam would eventually escalate into the Cambodian–Vietnamese War, which toppled the Khmer Rouge government in 1979. In response, China invaded Vietnam, with subsequent border conflicts lasting until 1991. Within the United States, the war gave rise to what was referred to as Vietnam Syndrome, a public aversion to American overseas military involvements, which, together with the Watergate scandal contributed to the crisis of confidence that affected America throughout the 1970s.
Embarking on an "Oral history project Vietnam War," we've set out to capture the uncensored "Voices from the Vietnam War trenches." This endeavor seeks to immortalize the "Firsthand accounts from the Vietnam War," preserving the raw, unfiltered experiences of those who were thrust into the chaos. By centering the "Personal narratives of the Vietnam War," we hope to shed light on the individual human stories often overshadowed by broad historical narratives. Special focus is given to the stories of "Young soldiers in the Vietnam War," their innocence lost amidst the cacophony of conflict, their voices vital to our understanding of this tumultuous period.
