There were many brutal effects caused by the weapons used in the Vietnam War. One weapon that was used were napalm bombs. It was the U.S. military’s most primary weapon used to cause mass destruction to a targeted area. Napalm is a thick, sticky liquid that sticks to virtually anything and impossible to get off. With many improvements during this time, the U.S. air force was able to cover up to 200 meters of land causing massive destruction. Anyone caught in this deadly event had little or no defense against the napalm. The effects led many antiwar activists to protest the use of napalm in Vietnam.
