One strategy was booby traps. These traps were usually covered in leaves, bushes or just grass they hid their traps well and caught a lot of soldiers off guard.]]> 2020-12-18 14:39:53 UTC https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031331053 zackary_bogle21 https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031332397 The F4 Phantom was the plane used to drop mostly all of the napalm strikes.

The M16 also had many problems in this war because it was a new gun they were trying. Another reason it had issues is because the US sent the wrong ammo so many were limited on ammo.]]> 2020-12-18 14:41:37 UTC https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031337439 zackary_bogle21 https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031338017 Troops were fighting wars in jungles with guns and knives and hand grenades. They used camouflage to help them be more effective. Camouflage was a big factor because they were fighting in a big jungle if you had camouflage you could catch your enemy off guard and not be able to get seen]]> 2020-12-18 14:41:46 UTC https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031338017 zackary_bogle21 https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031448064 UH-1 helicopter, named the Huey, which could fly at low altitudes and speeds and land easily in small spaces. U.S. forces used the Huey to transport troops. The Huey was very important when it came to transporting troops in and out it saved many lives because it was able to fly so low. Flying so low prevented alot of them from being shot down.

The M132 Armored Flamethrower was very successful for taking out cover like the napalm strikes.They also made flamethrowers on tanks when they had open areas the tanks could go. I would say this helps with taking away the cover for the enemy because without the cover the Vietnamese were not ready.]]> 2020-12-18 15:16:59 UTC https://padlet.com/zackary_bogle21/btopmji42nnsc466/wish/1031477905
