Vietnam War Test Next Double Block!!

Vietnam War Test Next Double Block 
This Week!!
Example Test Question: "What is message conveyed by this 1968 photograph?

There will be a test Wednesday (tomorrow) based on what you have learned about the Vietnam War for the past two weeks. Most of the test will be source-based, so you really can't study for it. There is NO essay and this isn't a Paper 1 either. They will be "rapid response" answers of about a paragraph in length or a sentence or two. 

But, you want to be sure to review your answer to the following assignments and know the general concepts listed below. 

HOMEWORK: U.S. and Containment in Vietnam (Assigned March 23)
