Good question. Kentucky was one of the Border States - slave-states that had narrowly voted against joining the Confederacy, but clearly still at risk of doing so. Lincoln was so sensitive about this that he allowed Kentucky to stay neutral for the first year of the war. In 1862, the Confederates invaded the state, and their commander, Braxton Bragg, was able to set up a Southern government there. At this point, the Confederates sewed a twelfth star into their flag, representing Kentucky. However, this government collapsed as soon as Bragg retreated, and Kentucky finally, if reluctantly, declared for the Union.
The US Navy's Brown Water Navy (Riverine Force) had the Mekong Delta Rivers pretty well sewed up; the enemy could still get through...but vast numbers of USN Swift Boats and PBR's, Monitors, and Alpha boats put a strangle hold on the enemies water routes. The Ho Chi Minh trail was another matter. That AO (Area of Operations) was bombed by the USAF into a lunar moon landscape; but since it was in neutral country (Cambodia and Laos), it couldn't be destroyed. The trail was bombed by B-52's and constantly "truck hunted" by the AC-130 Spectres. The trail survived it all.
