The United States entered the war to prevent a communist takeover of South Vietnam as part of their wider strategy of containment. Military advisors arrived beginning in 1950. U.S. involvement escalated in the early 1960s and combat units were deployed beginning in 1965. Involvement peaked in 1968 at the time of the Tet Offensive. Despite Paris Peace Accords, a peace treaty signed by all parties in January 1973 and Case-Church Amendment, a legislation passed by the U.S. Congress in June 1973 prohibiting further direct U.S. military intervention without Congressional authorization, the U.S. was still heavily invested in the war until 1975. The capture of Saigon by North Vietnamese army, in April 1975, marked the end of Vietnam War. North and South Vietnam were reunified the following year.

The Vietnam War was a military conflict that occurred in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from 1959 to 30 April 1975. The war was fought between the communist North Vietnam, supported by its communist allies, and the government of South Vietnam, supported by the United States and other member nations of the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO).

  • Ammunition Company issuing Death one round at a time.....

  • 2 more years and i am gonna be one of mean mother greens killing machines.hoora

  • I take exception to the history listed above.In 1919,following WW1,HoChiMinh wrote to Secy/State Robt.Lansing asking theUS to support VN freedom from France.He was ignored.After France's defeat by Nazis and Japan leading intoWW2,HCM and the VietMinh fought alongside allies against Japan.After WW2,VN declared its freedom from France and asked US support for a democratic gov't.in VN.Truman chose to support French colonial aggression instead,pushing VN to accept Soviet aid in its War for Freedom.

  • These things we do so others may live.

  • @tallwildcat22 take the time to ask some hard questions about America. The Vietnam War was a classic. I was just asking how you think it happened that despite the fact that the CIA told the President(Johnson)that Vietnam was no threat to US interests he kept that secret and prosecuted the war which killed at least one person I knew. That was the conspiracy. Just like Iraq, see? Government lies to you and then does bad things with your tax dollars. Look up daniel Ellesberg on YT

  • @CobinRain your just one of those Conspiracy people who hates america and is prob not from american

  • Funny thing is, America lost the war and yet surprise, Communism did not spread to California. You dont suppose that the CIA secret reports, kept hidden from the American people until they were leaked by Daniel Ellsberg (the so-called Pentagon Papers) were right all along, do you? That Vietnam was no threat to American interests?

    A pointless and stupid war and war crime whose real war aim was American domination in the region--S Vietnam was a US puppet state threatened by a popular liberation
