Best Answer

The US leadership in the White House and the pentagon, had all lived thru WWII. The Generals and Colonels, such as GEN's Curtis Lemay, Harkins, Westmoreland, Abrams, and Maxwell Taylor, were WWII veterans. Some US fighter pilots had actually scored aerial kills in WWII, and were fighting again in the sky's over North Vietnam; Colonel Robin Olds had shot down German aircraft in aerial combat, and then shot down North Vietnamese MIG-17's during aerial "dog-fights" in the Vietnam War. The Vietnam War was fought by WWII experienced leadership.
