In the beginning, especially amongst US WWII vets, the expectation was the communists would bend then eventually quit under the tremendous firepower of the United States B52s, battleship (USS New Jersey), Patton tanks, Airmobile Divisions, and firepower in general, etc. What the US public didn't know was the war was being fought between Eastern ways of thinking verses Western thinking. Reference: "Mounted Combat In Vietnam", by GEN Donn A. Starry; Department of the Army, first published 1978.
