the reason for invovlement overseas were military interes, economic interest and cultural beliefs!!
Self defense, the US was attacked.
United States involvement in the Boxer Rebellion would have contradicted the ideals George Washington laid out in his farewell address. It also would have violated the Monroe Doctrine by becoming involved in Europe's colonial matters
The US supported the Cubans desire for Independence and the sinking of the USS Maine.
One of the reasons the US was in favor of becoming involved in the Boxer Rebellion was the due to the siege of the American Consulate in Beijing. The US was also part of the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Its costing us billions of dollars, its taking the lives of our men and women, and the operations are pointless.
Christmas 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944; on Christmas 1945 the war was over, but many military members were still overseas.
The 1920s were called the "roaring 20s" in the United States.
The fear of being invaded was not a justification for the increase in US involvement in Vietnam. The US withdrew from Vietnam in 1975.
With the French defeat, the South Vietnamese government needed help to train and equip its army. The US was committed to stopping the spread of Communism throughout Asia.
The economic factors and the scramble of the Natural Resources were some of the reasons that led to the reduction of the number of immigrants entering the US in 1920. The illegal activities like drug peddling were also one of the reasons.
A US citizen living overseas (such as a dependent of a service member stationed overseas) can enlist from overseas - however, they will be returned to the US for Basic Training/Boot Camp. A foreign national may not enlist from overseas, and must be an established permanent resident of the United States.
False, US involvement in Vietnam was not reduced during the Kennedy administration.
