The War in Afghanistan from 2001-Present. (the issues were Islamic Fundamentalism and support of terrorism)
The Cold War was entirely communism vs. free enterprise.
The Korean War was fought by the UN against the extension of Chinese Communism.
The Vietnam War was also a proxy war, with the North supported by the USSR.
Both wars were fought against communism.
Communism was a central issue in the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. These conflicts were fueled by the ideological struggle between communism and capitalism.

To stop north Vietnam from spreding communism in entering south Vietnam To stop north Vietnam from spreding communism in entering south Vietnam
South Vietnam. In the Vietnam war when south Vietnam lost the communism took over south Vietnam.Before that north Vietnam & south Vietnam were different colonies.
Anything after Vietnam (1975) doesn't concern communism. Vietnam was the last straw!
no, they were not.
What the war in Vietnam was... it was a SHAME. Our troops were involved in a conflict that is no different than the conflicts in Afghanistan or Iraq. The brave young men and women fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq are seen as heroes; the brave young men and women who fought in Vietnam were seen as trash, killers, and every other imaginable degrading name. The main difference between these conflicts... the American news media. Please, when you meet a Vietnam Vet, take the time to thank them for their service and tell them how sad America should be that these brave soldiers were treated the way they were.
