(Battle of Dien Bien Phu in 1954 which resulted in a French defeat; and the end of the French Indochina War). What he did do about it, was send a US Army detachment directly from the US into the besieged zone, and ordered all out B52 strikes upon the place. It was the B52 Stratofortress's which saved Khe Sahn; and saved LBJ.
