A battle that might have made all the difference in the outcome of the Vietnam War takes center stage in the provocative "Battlefield Vietnam: Tet" 3-disc DVD set.

Each disc covers a different aspect of the operation: planning for the battle, the Tet offensive its eventual aftermath and the fall of Saigon seven years later.
