So he can poke the US and a Vietnamese-American in the eyes. Nothing to do with history in general or trying to understand the Vietnam War in particular. Kinda childish, really...

Humiliation of US Army.

Name a Army which has not been humilated..The only condition is that it should have been active in field operations.

Nice to hear. Then you can go lay in your couch, drink an American-made soda, browse with your American-made laptop and watch a Hollywood film.
