<p>I'll post another if no one wants to:</p>
<p>What were the "Pentagon Papers"</p>
<p>Walden was by Henry David Thoreau by the way(in response to a post a couple of pages back)</p>
<p>The "Pentagon Papers" was a 7,000 page top-secret Department of Defense study of American involvement in the Vietnam War. It outlined that the government had deliberately expanded its role in the war by conducting air strikes over North Vietnam and offensive actions were taken by U.S. Marines well before the American public was told that such actions were necessary. All of this had happened while president Lyndon Johnson had been promising not to expand the war. The document increased the credibility gap for the U.S. government, and was seen as hurting the efforts by the Nixon administration to fight the war.</p>
