Yes, it was the longest war in the American history and invited much criticism and controversy, both from the world and the American public. The greatest cultural movement of enlightened lifestyles and culture arose during that era which changed the shape of the American society. As noted by General Maxwell Taylor they knew little about their Allies the South Vietnamese and even less about the North Vietnamese that they had been confronting and that it had been a sordid affair. Also, he stated that America should never indulge in that sort of an affair again in the future. The American army ended up in a controversial situation as there had been many claims of abuse and torture meted out by American soldiers to the indigenous Vietnamese.
