What were the dates in the middle of the Vietnam war?

Answer 1

The Vietnam War - as usually described in America - ran from about 1957 until 1975. Another way of measuring the war is from the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964 until all major US combat units left the country in 1973.

The Vietnam War for independence ran almost continuously for almost 1,000 years. The Vietnamese people fought against Chinese and other central Asian people, Thai and Cambodian influence, and French colonialism. They fought against Japanese in World War II and followed that with 9 years of intense fighting against the French colonialists. Even after US troops left the country, the war continued with North Vietnam against the South. Vietnamese troops did incursions into Cambodia in the Pol Pot era and fought against an invasion by China, successfully halting the world's largest army.

The Spring of 1968. That was the peak in the fighting, the number of deaths, and in the U.S. military strength during the Vietnam War. It was also the turning point in the U.S. involvement in the conflict. All U.S. troops had left that country by the spring of 1973.
