After watching Fog of War, develop a historical question that the film raises in your mind. Next read Robert McNamara’s “The Lessons of Vietnam.” Note that his lessons aren’t exactly the lessons that Erroll Morris used to organize the film. Next read the transcript of speech McNamara delivered in 1964 before the Armed Services Committee and a transcript of a news conference with McNamara in 1965. Then write a short essay of 500-750 words that makes an argument to address your question, using evidence from the primary sources.
