Cu Chi Tunnel

One of the stops we made was to Cu Chi, a historical monument to the ravages of war and how the vietnamese survived during the War.
There were exhibits and movies as well as traps and tunnels for the adventurous to crawl.
There was also cooking preparation and exhibits on the type of food that kept people alive.  We were able to try a potato like root vegetable which was pretty starchy and bland.
There was also a shooting range where you could try your hand at really old weapons.  
After seeing that people did not even have ear protection, I walked pretty far from the area and ducked into the gift shop.
Of course, the viewpoint of most of the narrative was against the USA which was expected.
