I wasn't sure what to name this article so if you have any suggestions please leave a response here . Thanks--$1LENCE D00600D (talk) 05:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest we change the outcome of the Battle from a Tactical Victory, but a Strategic Defeat.

I don't think we can really call this an American victory overall. True they won the battles, but the USA also won most of the Battles in Vietnam and the USA still lost when they pulled out of the country.

Perhaps it would be better to say we had a tactical victory in that the USA won the campaign overall, but a strategic loss, because the USA lost its base in the Pacific and much of the crew mutinied leaving Porter with less than he had before to fight the British.

$1LENCE D00600D Over than that overall this is a great article. Thank you for writing it. Historyguy1138 (talk) 16:24, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
