Applying the Lessons of Vietnam

You've seen the video, you've read the handout, now answer the questions . . . !
1) Of the lessons A-K in the handout "Applying the Lessons of Vietnam," which one is the most important one the USA should have learned from its experiences in the Vietnam conflict?  Why do you think this lesson is more important than all of the others? 
2) Did the USA actually learn this most important lesson in its recent involvements in Iraq, Afghanistan, and/or Libya (do some research if you need to)?  Back up your answer with some evidence.
3) Critique (in a professional manner) the choice of the person who posted before you (agree/disagree with his/her choice of most important lesson, and why).

OK . . . It's Finally Test Time!

Your Unit 1 -- United Nations test on Friday is going to be 120 points of fun.  If you want to do well, study!  The important things to study are on the back of the Unit 1 Calendar that you are including with your Binder Check.  If you know all of the key terms, people, and concepts, you should do well.  

The test will be mostly multiple choice, true/false, and matching, with one Venn Diagram, one short answer, and one long answer.

This will be an opened-brain, closed-Binder, closed-book, closed-neighbor, closed-electronic device, no-help-sheet, etc. test . . . just do your best . . . that's all we can ask!


Good Luck!
