I think you're wrong about

the film fading as the Vietnam War fades. I believe it will be relevant and well received for as long as there is war. And even if we were to reach a point where there was no more war (and assuming there were living human beings still on the planet) it would be seen as a window into what war used to be like. Beyond that, my feeling, without even thinking about the story, is that from the very opening shot one is aware they are watching the work of a film maker (and a very very good one) and not just a movie director. This, more than the story or the politics will be the reason the film endures.
