- 20:5120:51, 15 May 2024 diff hist +138 Case–Church Amendment More than 95% of U.S. forces were withdrawn before the Paris Peace Accords, so I have changed "U.S. forces" to "The last U.S. forces" as what was withdrawn pursuant to the Accords.

- 18:5918:59, 13 May 2024 diff hist −63 m Gulf of Tonkin incident There were six citations to Hanyok in the first three paragraphs. Five of them included the same quote. There is not need for more than one such citation per paragraph, and only two of them were in locations where the quote was relevant.

- 23:4723:47, 11 May 2024 diff hist +4 Gulf of Tonkin incident Several references to the old (1996) edition of Moise shifted to refer to the better (2019) revised edition.
- 23:3623:36, 11 May 2024 diff hist −215 Case–Church Amendment Factual details corrected, mainly about when the U.S. stopped bombing Laos, and incorrect suggestion of a cutoff of U.S. financial aid removed.
- 21:2221:22, 11 May 2024 diff hist +210 Gulf of Tonkin incident I have added the revised edition of my book to the source list, as a preliminary to shifting existing source notes from the original edition to the considerably superior revised edition. I consulted in the Talk section, and people seemed to feel this would not be a violation of the rules on self-reference.
- 16:0816:08, 11 May 2024 diff hist −213 Tet Offensive The previous version was based on an inaccurate summary of the official Vietnamese war history by an American book reviewer. I shifted it to reflect the actual text of the official history.

25 September 2023
- 23:5123:51, 25 September 2023 diff hist +74 Paris Peace Accords I have brought the text more into conformity with what the source says.
- 23:0823:08, 25 September 2023 diff hist −34 m Paris Peace Accords I have shifted the source note to a more appropriate location. This is a source only for the signing of the agreement, not for the deteriorating morale, and withdrawal, of US forces in the preceding period

- 22:1422:14, 24 September 2023 diff hist 0 Paris Peace Accords Nixon made this an agreement not a treaty. A treaty would have required ratification by the US Senate.

- 20:3820:38, 23 September 2023 diff hist −242 Vietnam War My book was cited for a statement that had not appeared in my book. I have deleted the inaccurate citation.
- 20:2920:29, 23 September 2023 diff hist +203 Vietnam War The total number and peak number of New Zealand troops were given, with a citation to a book I wrote that contained neither figure. I have substituted a valid citation for the peak number.
- 12:5312:53, 23 September 2023 diff hist +20 Nguyễn Ngọc Loan The previous edit gave a misleading impression that I (Edwin Moise) had told Hastings the truth would never be known. That was Hastings' opinion, not mine.

- 23:2623:26, 22 September 2023 diff hist +63 Gareth Porter The article attributed to my book as estimate of 13,500. I have no idea how anyone could have thought I was presenting such an estimate. I have substituted the actual estimate in my book, which was not nearly so precise.

- 04:3904:39, 10 March 2023 diff hist +227 Nguyễn Ngọc Loan Corrected what I believe to have been a misunderstanding of the definition of POW status in the Geneva Convention.
13 February 2023
- 03:0503:05, 13 February 2023 diff hist +7 Paris Peace Accords I have changed "success" to "strong showing" because McCarthy did not actually win. He just came shockingly close to matching the number of votes for LBJ.
- 02:5802:58, 13 February 2023 diff hist +44 Paris Peace Accords The article to which the link leads is correctly titled, using the words "Provisional Revolutionary Government of the," which were part of the formal name of the organization and indeed were the basis for its acronym.
- 02:4502:45, 13 February 2023 diff hist 0 m Paris Peace Accords The ICCS had no ability to fulfill the agreement, it could only observe whether others were complying with it.
10 February 2023
- 04:2104:21, 10 February 2023 diff hist −4 Tet Offensive There were twelve provinces in II Corps, so the five province capitals that were attacked prematurely should not be described as "all" the provincial capitals.
- 04:1104:11, 10 February 2023 diff hist +25 Tet Offensive I corrected the timing of the beginning of the offensive.
- 04:0104:01, 10 February 2023 diff hist +14 Gulf of Tonkin incident Followup on date correction in previous sentence. Also in my previous edit I deleted reference to the destroyers having fired on sonar as well as radar return. A sonar operator on Maddox heard sounds that he and others believed were evidence of the attack, but it was only radar, not sonar, that gave a location precise enough to be used for aiming gunfire.
- 03:4903:49, 10 February 2023 diff hist +16 Gulf of Tonkin incident I corrected the date on which the Turner Joy joined the Maddox.
17 October 2021
- 17:3117:31, 17 October 2021 diff hist +178 Võ Nguyên Giáp I have corrected the dates for the end of Operation LInebacker II and for the withdrawal of the last US combat troops.
