What is known, is that actress Jane Fonda went to N. Vietnam and was photographed sitting on a North Viet anti-aircraft gun, (allegedly cheering on the AAA crews as they shot at US jets over-head; although this may have been a form of embellishment as the story & photograph was spread around thru-out the nation). However, the picture itself was printed on the front pages of newspapers.

Known from then on as "Hanoi Jane", talk was ripe about bringing her up on "treason" and "aiding the enemy." But she was saved, as no declaration of war had been signed between the warring nations (US vs N. Vietnam). If there had been a formal declaration of war signed, "Hanoi Jane" might very well have been brought up on charges.

Note: WWII was America's last formally declared war. Atomic weapons have effectively negated "declared wars" as they infer "total war"; and total war implies the use of all weapons in order to win the war. All weapons would mean nuclear war.
