  • Vietnam,DMZ. Souvenir photo at the memorial museum at Khe Shan US airbase. Many of the visitors to these sites, like most of their guides, are too young to remember the war. Relatively few tourists come from the United States. For most people who come here, the war is a distant curiosity. But for the last few years, since travel to Vietnam became more open, groups of American veterans have come in search of remembered battlefields. A small number of American tour companies specialize in guiding them and gaining permission to visit remote areas

  • Vietnam, Tour guide showing photos of American bases during the war along Route 9 of the DMZ... DMZ stands for "Demilitarized Zone." It's a line along the Ben Hai river, at almost exactly the 17th parallel, which divided Vietnam into North and South. Ho Chi Minh's forces and the French agreed, in 1954, to set it up as a temporary boundary. But the DMZ divided Vietnam for more than 20 years. North and South Vietnam developed separately, with the North following communism and the South capitalism. During the American War, the DMZ was anything but "demilitarized": some of the heaviest fighting took place here. Since 1976, when Vietnam was reunified, the old DMZ technically went away. But divisions remain. Vietnamese people still talk about "north" and "south." The old north, with its old capital Hanoi, is now the capital of all Vietnam -- and "southerners" I talked to didn't have much good to say about northeners. I took a day-long tour to former military sites along the former DMZ. A lot of the phyisical evidence of the war is gone -- overgrown by jungle, replanted into fields, rebuilt from rubble. But there's still lots to see, including thousands (or millions) of bomb craters. There's also lots that you can't see, like thousands of mines still buried -- and still killing people. All in all, it's a sobering place that still brings back the horror of the war. ..

  • Vietnam, Dien Bien Phu :  souvenir photos taken by a tank left from the indipendance  battle against the French army in 1954 spots seem to be memorials to wartime propaganda as much to the war itself. in their new struggle for foreign currency, the Vietnamese are exploiting their harsh history, offering visits to long-forgotten places that were once considered vital to America's national interests. Most of the visitors here are foreigners; the Vietnamese who come are mostly schoolchildren with their teachers.

Despite the rhetoric, this museum has become one of the most popular attractions with Western visitors of all political persuasions. It is a stark reminder that wars rarely have winners and are never glorious. Along with the many photographs, the museum displays US armoured vehicles, artillery pieces, bombs and infantry weapons. There is even a guillotine used by the French on pesky Viet Minh 'troublemakers'.

  • Vietnam,  Vietnam, Dien Bien Phu : Vietnamese veteran at the War Meseun in Dien Bien Phu, the climactic battle between French and Vietnamese Communist forces (called the Vietminh) after World War Two, took place at the town of Dien Biên in northwestern Vietnam. The defeat of over twenty-thousand French troops on 7 May 1954 after a fifty-five day siege of the camp led directly to the division of Vietnam into two countries. French forces at Dien Bien Phu found themselves surrounded and cut off. After nearly a two-month siege, the Viet Minh overran Dien Bien Phu, prompting the end of French Indochina. Today, Dien Bien Phu is a major city and is scheduled to replace Lai Chau as the provincial capital. Ironically, the development is threatening to overrun the battlefield.

  • Vietnam,DMZ: Khe Sanh, selling war souvenirs to tourists and veterans.Here  US had a famous airbase. This was one of the most (in)famous battle sites of the war. To distract the Americans from the Tet Offensive that they were going to launch in the south, the communists started a siege of the base at Khe Sanh, here on the DMZ. US President Johnson, who was determined to avoid another disaster like the one the French suffered not long before at Dien Bien Phu, made the Joint Chiefs of Staff sign a written pledge that they wouldn't lose Khe Sanh. They didn't lose at Khe Sanh -- though the cost in human lives was terrible. And, as it turned out, the Tet Offensive -- for which Khe Sanh was just a smokescreen -- was the beginning of the end of the war

  • Vietnam,DMZ. souvenir photo at the end of the tunnel. The North and South bombarded each other over and over again. To survive, villagers who lived here built underground tunnel complexes. Tunnels collapsed under bombardment, or naturally -- sometimes killing the people inside. One complex that survived is near the village of Vinh Moc...The tour that takes you through these claustrophobic passages -- as much as 25 meters (about 80 feet) underground -- gives you a good idea of the will to survive that the Vietnamese had. Tens of thousands of villagers lived down here for as many as five days at a time. Seventeen babies were born in the underground delivery room.As you walk farther and farther underground, you pass holes dug into the walls at the sides of the tunnels where families lived during the frequent bombardments.....
