Vietnam in HD
Sunday, May 3 at 12pm/11c
In honor of the 40th anniversary of the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, HISTORY will air Vietnam in HD this Sunday. Those who lived through the Vietnam War era will never forget the way it changed their lives and profoundly affected world politics. But for many young people, the war in Vietnam is a conflict they may know very little about. HISTORY is proud to present Vietnam in HD , a six-hour miniseries that captures the war through eyes of those who experienced it firsthand. Culled from thousands of hours of rarely seen footage, much of it taken by soldiers and combat journalists, this series touches down into the drama of the war at key turning points. Vietnam in HD tells the story of the Vietnam War to a new generation of viewers, giving them insights into the causes and consequences of this tumultuous era.
