Viet Nam Debate Reflections By Don Johnson

Public affairs feature reports Don Johnson’s Viet Nam observations based on briefings from General Westmoreland and others. He argues this is a war of infiltration and subversion, not a civil war, and highlights four conclusions praising American personnel, North Viet Nam air strikes, unity at home, and the courage of South Vietnamese. He visits Mekong Delta outpost McCay and condemns campus protests and draft card burnings as harming the war effort.

Democratic debate on Vietnam and draft protests

A long defense of lawful dissent contrasts with opposition to draft card burning and antiwar actions. The piece urges factual debate on Viet Nam policy, warns against escalatory aims, and argues for withdrawal and diplomacy rather than prolonged U.S. military involvement. It invokes President Johnson, Ky, Lodge, and Kennedy while urging mature global leadership and peaceful settlement.
