I'll never forget the time when I heard on the evening news that Pres. LBJ (Lyndon B. Johnson) wanted to escalate the war in Vietnam. "We gotta turn up the music." The very next day, the photo on the front page of the Chicago Daily News newspaper showed a close up shot of a B-52 dropping hundreds of bombs over an area in Vietnam. This was the first time I heard of the term, "carpet bombing" which you can see in this video footage at 2:50 and 3:13.
