He first visited Vietnam in 1967, in the midst of the Vietnam War as a staffer for the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. During this trip and his five-week trip in 1969, he came to the conclusion that the war was far from being won. His report of his travels was influential on the committee chairman and was eventually leaked to the press. [2]
