Yes.
The United States attempted to stop the USSR from spreading communism by supplying armaments, financing, and military support to countries on the verge of falling into a communistic government. The Korean Police Action and Vietnamese Conflict were attempts at stopping communism from overtaking the countries of Korea and Vietnam. The United States aided Afghanistan in the ten year war against Russia, which was an effort in keeping communism out of the Middle East.
The two most common methods used in military planning are forward planning and backward planning.

Containment was a United States policy using military, economic, and diplomatic strategies to stall the spread of communism, enhance America's security and influence abroad, and prevent a "domino effect".
Depending on your political position, you could argue that the creation of communism brought its demise. Or, to be kinder to communism, the people promoting communism were using "communism" as an excuse to grab power. So it was just a dictatorship running its course.
With personal hosting you arent having to pay anybody like you would have to if you were using pother methods. Using the other methods can and will get costly.
The term containment has been and can be used for anything; the containment of a disease; the containment of water; containing a fire. Or containing a criminal in a building until he is either overtaken or surrenders to law enforcement. Containment was used in Europe, Asia, and Latin America to contain problems encountered by those regions. During the cold war the "term" CONTAINMENT was used to control communism. That was a name used to prevent the spread of communism. Military force was used to prevent that spread. Either by just showing up and letting them see the military force; as happened during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Or by actually USING the military force by killing them in war; as happened in the Korean War and Vietnam War.
Communism is not a form of government; it's an economic form. Additionally, pure communism is highly Utopian and extremely impractical in real life. As such, I am not aware of any country actually using the Marxist/Leninist model of Communism as an economic model nowadays.
On the surface, the Truman Doctrine was to offer military and economic aid to the fighters attempting to repel Soviet backed forces in Greece and Turkey. However, the Truman Doctrine also allowed the U.S. and its allies to practice what would be called the Containment Theory. The theory said that Communism had to be contained in countries already exposed to Communism so they would not spread. If they spread to one country, the surrounding countries would also pick up Communism, in a domino effect that would cause the entire world to be Communist. This is a partial cause of the Vietnam War, attempting to aid in economic and military means, the South Vietnamese, who were trying to keep Communism contained to the north.
