No. The TET offensive of 1968 was designed to attack every provincial capital in South Vietnam to incite a general uprising of the South Vietnamese people against their government.
The tactic failed to produce those results, but the street fighting in the old imperial capital of Hue (pronounced 'way') lasted just over three weeks, giving the perception to the American television audience that the North Vietnamese were winning.
It was the 'beginning of the end' for the U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War.

How did Vietnam benefit or not benefit from the US involvement and action in history?
Vietnam suffered due to US action in supporting South Vietnam in the Second Indochinese War (called the Vietnam War in the USA and called the American War in Vietnam). The Second Indochinese War cost over 2 million Vietnamese lives, destroyed the Vietnamese economy and was an extension of the First Indochina War in the eyes of the Vietnamese. There wee numerous US soldiers who massacred Vietnamese civilians. Additionally, during the Second Indochinese War the United States used numerous defoliants (products to kill plants) in order to more effectively move through the dense Vietnamese jungles. A number of these defoliants (especially Agent Orange) caused mutations and diseases in both Vietnamese civilians, soldiers and US servicemen. A number of US servicemen have successfully sued for compensation for their injuries, but there have never been any reparations paid to Vietnam for this injustice. Further the isolation that Vietnam received from its previous Communist benefactors after the war combined with the isolation that US gave to Communist Vietnam to promote economic problems. However, Vietnam and the United States were able to have a rapprochement in the 1990s and Vietnam is increasingly looking to the United States to help preserve its independence from China.
