The NCR did not expect civilians to be in the camp. Of course, what defines a "civilian" when the whole camp is armed and even children are expected to fight?
The NCR responded to an attack on their caravan and thought they were attacking a camp instead of their main settlement.
Vietnam is post-WW2.
"The operation went sideways from the moment NCR troops deployed into Bitter Springs. The attack force was spotted too soon and made contact with Great Khan defenders prematurely. 1st Recon troops heard an intense firefight take place, before they spotted Khans coming down Canyon 37 in groups, composed of women, children, and the elderly, followed by wounded Khans. The sharpshooters hesitated and reported the situation up the command chain. They were order to shoot until they were out of ammunition. The sharpshooters obeyed the order.[8] The retreating civilians were gunned down.[3] "
The way the NCR troops were deployed, and the orders to "shoot until they were out of ammunition", says it was an extermination. NCR command knew exactly what they were doing. The civilized republic was simply removing the savage tribals.
The NCR is 19th century America. Of course, you can draw comparisons to the 20th century because they still practice Imperialism.
Geostrategist Max Boot described Afghanistan as the modern cowboy frontier for the US.
In our time, there was a very real threat that there might be open [nuclear] war between the United States and China during the Vietnam conflict. Those fears were not realized, just as they weren't during the Korean conflict and the USS Pueblo incident (which I actually am intimate with, as my father was a Russian translator in US Army intelligence at the time).
In this world of apocalypse realized, things probably went very differently between the US and China during the Korean and Vietnamese conflicts. The Cuban Missile Crisis still happened (I think), but events took a different turn as relations between the US and China were more in the fore.
In real life, in the event of a full-scale nuclear war, most of Kansas and Nebraska would be habitable…for a short time. Most everyone else in the US would be dead already, not live long enough to mutate (don't even get me started on the animal and bacteria and virus populations). It would actually be more like events outlined in Nevil Shute's "On the Beach," a book eventually made into a cinema feature wherein literally everyone dies.
Keep in mind, though: It's a game.
I think you misunderstood the topic. We weren't debating what real world events happened in the Fallout universe we were talking about the parallels between the NCR and the US during the 19th century. Just because the timelines may be different doesn't mean events in the fictional one can't make references to real world ones.
Hey it happens, I do it too from time to time.
