Those proponents in the CIA who were minions of the industrial elite pushed for the US to enter the fray in order to secure the government contracts and largess-laden expenditures that would inevitably accrue afterward. This would also present opportunities for major drug importing for the CIA and open the American market to CIA black budget funding.

There were 3 wars involving Vietnam in the 20th Century: 1. Guerilla warfare against the Japanese during WWII (1941-1945), with US assistance. 2. The French Indochina War (1946-1954); French Vietnam War. 3. The US Indochina War (1961-1973); US Vietnam War.
After World War 2, the French went back to Vietnam (formerly their territory) in an attempt to reclaim it, but the Soviets had already taken North Vietnam. The Soviets helped establish Northern Vietnam, and left it to run itself. The French claimed South Vietnam, leading to a struggle between the two countries. The French battled North Vietnam on multiple occasions, but ultimately gave up. The U.S entered Vietnam in order to prevent North Vietnam from invading South Vietnam, but North Vietnam had the majority of support. While the North Vietnamese Army invaded from the North, Vietnamese insurgents (Viet Cong) used guerilla tactics in South Vietnam to disrupt U.S/NATO operations.
Madness, sheer madness. The Domino Theory held that if one country fell to Communism, then the next would, and so on. This is bad because a) Communism is not very nice and b) Communist countries are not a market for US goods. Therefore the US must protect South Vietnam from the Commies in the North. However, as the French had already proved, this was impossible.
The French were fighting in Vietnam in 1950 not the US.
Just before the Vietnam Conflict, Vietnam was a colony under French rule. Before that time, China had control over much of Eastern and Southeastern Asia.
The United States took over where the French left which subsequently led to the second Vietnam war. The United States supported a new anticommunist government in South Vietnam.

Japan left Vietnam because the US won the Vietnam War. The US effectively kicked them out of the area. This was preventing China from invading Vietnam as well.
