I think in both Vietnam and Korea we committed military forces without an intention to win, and indeed with a feeling that we could achieve some of our objectives simply by having some men there who would participate in limited kinds of activity, but in the case of Korea told not to win, and in the case of Vietnam clearly without the intention of applying the degree of force necessary to win. That's a very terrible thing to do to military people – to ask them to go into extreme danger, but in effect to have a decision made that it's not important enough for us to win. —Caspar Weinberger,
Secretary of defense in Reagan administration,
1987

What evidence does Weinberger include to support his argument?

He compares troop preparations in previous conflicts.
He cites death rate statistics from the Vietnam War.
He compares the Vietnam War to the Korean War.
He provides details on troop deployment in the war
