The Vietnam War is the only war that the US was involved in that the enemy won. If you recall the War of 1812, this was a war that had no victor, and no loser; so technically, the US did not win or lose.
Another View:
The Vietnam War was virtually won by the US-led alliance - the North sued for a truce when it was paralysed by the air-sea blockade. The terms of the truce were broken by the North as it continued to prepare for an all-out invasion of the South while the allies withdrew and ceased providing support in honouring the terms of the truce.
North Vietnam unilaterally broke the truce and over-ran the weakened South. As the US was not involved in opposing this as it observed the cease-fire, it could hardly be said that it lost the war.
