At first they had no solution, but then developed napalm and the Daisycutter. Napalm burned away the jungles, along with anyone unfortunate enough to be there. The Daisycutter was a large bomb with an extended pole on which the detonator was mounted. The bomb exploded about 4 feet off the ground and removed all of the surrounding jungle by explosion.

What did the US soldiers do when the Vietnam War was over concerning their wives?

As in MOST wars, the returning GI's either still had a wife when he returned or he didn't (meaning she divorced him while he was absent). If they divorced upon his return, or while he was away, he started a new life. If he still had a wife when he returned, he went about re-establishing his life with his wife and maybe a soon to be family. The biggest problem with any military family is SEPARATION. If a wife can handle that, then the marriage will succeed. A GOOD PERCENTAGE of California families from WWII up until the end of the Vietnam War, was MILITARY FAMILIES. California has a current populaton of over 35,000,000 people. It one were to interview all 35 million Californians, they would find that 25 million of them are/were connected to a military family in one way or another (Grandfather, Grandmother, Uncle, Father, etc.). So obviously, being a military family man was successful.

Eisenhower never briefed Kennedy on Vietnam when he took over office. Which surprised JFK when Vietnam began to fester; Ike had briefed Kennedy on Laos! Apparently Laos was what Eisenhower believed would be the key trouble spot in Southeast Asia. No one, not the military, not the civilians, probably not even the CIA and other covert organizations believed Vietnam would erupt into what it did.
