The Tet Offensive was a military campaign during the Vietnam War that began on January 31, 1968. Regular
and irregular forces of the People's Army of Vietnam fought against the forces of the Republic of Vietnam
(South Vietnam), the United States, and their allies. The purpose of the offensive was to strike military and
civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam and to spark a general uprising among the
population that would then topple the Saigon government, thus ending the war in a single blow.[8]
The operations are referred to as the Tet Offensive because they began during the early morning hours of 31
January 1968, Tết Nguyên Đán, the first day of the year on a traditional lunar calendar and the most important
Vietnamese holiday. Both North and South Vietnam announced on national radio broadcasts that there would
be a two-day cease-fire during the holiday. In Vietnamese, the offensive is called Cuộc Tổng tiến công và nổi
dậy ("General Offensive and Uprising"), or Tết Mậu Thân (Tet, year of the monkey).
The NLF launched a wave of attacks on the morning of 31 January in the I and II Corps Tactical Zones of
South Vietnam. This early attack did not, however, cause undue alarm or lead to widespread defensive
measures. When the main NLF operation began the next morning, the offensive was countrywide in scope and
well coordinated, with more than 80,000 communist troops striking more than 100 towns and cities, including
36 of 44 provincial capitals, five of the six autonomous cities, 72 of 245 district towns, and the southern capital.
[9] The offensive was the largest military operation yet conducted by either side up to that point in the war.
The initial attacks stunned the US and South Vietnamese armies and took them by surprise, but most were
quickly contained and beaten back, inflicting massive casualties on communist forces. During the Battle of Hue
intense fighting lasted for a month and the NLF executed thousands of residents in the Massacre at Huế.
Around the US combat base at Khe Sanh fighting continued for two more months. Although the offensive was
a military defeat for the communists, it had a profound effect on the US government and shocked the US
public, which had been led to believe by its political and military leaders that the communists were, due to
previous defeats, incapable of launching such a massive effort.
