You don't?! But, you are all named Bruce, aren't you?

Well, yes, there is that take on it, certainly.

But then a similar thing could be said about the Titanic; the Captain, crew and passengers did a marvellous job, even though the designer let them down slightly.

  With 20/20 hindsight history still shows that the U.S. military forces did a great job in Vietnam against guerilla warriors despite the political upheaval and lack of battlefield doctrine for jungle warfare.   The US did not lose a single major battle in Vietnam (you can look that up) - the war was lost on the political side.   Would you not say that the military did a great job despite the lack of support for it?

True...but that was at the order of one of the company's senior
executives....not the Captain.
