Operation Rolling Thunder destroyed most of North Vietnam's oil storage facilities. But the North Vietnamese shifted most of their oil to underground tanks, and more arrived every day from China and the Soviet Union. The bombing was stepped up anyway. Over a million people were said to be working around the clock to undo whatever damage American bombs inflicted. They worked under the slogan "the enemy destroys, we repair." The strategic bombing campaign had little or no impact on the North's resolve, and the American public's doubts about the morality of the war grew.
