US/Allied Forces advanced into North Korea (the old fighting to win attitude) and approached too close to the Red Chinese Border. Red China was building up it's forces along the North Vietnamese Border during the Vietnam War, especially after President Nixon's invasion (incursion) of Cambodia in May of 1970 (also the Kent State University shooting/protesting that US Military move). However, the US was intent on NOT repeating the Korean War action of involving Red China in the war.
