the people that had a problem with them or if they had a job related to army or war industry.

The US entered the Vietnam war after ww2 because the US wanted to control Communism or stop it completely and half of Vietnam was a commie country and the US did not want the Communism to spread so we entered to stop the commie side of Vietnam and to liberate the Democratic side
There was no "Vietnam" during the Vietnam War. Communist NORTH Vietnam was attacking non-communist SOUTH Vietnam, and the US was trying to drive the communists out of South Vietnam...trying to stop communist aggression. It's called the Vietnam War because it's a lot easier to say, and less confusing...than to say "South Vietnam War" or "North Vietnam War", so some people go so far as to say the war in Southeast Asia instead.
The NUMBER ONE reason for protesting the war was THEY DIDN'T WANT TO GO TO VIETNAM (THE DRAFT!).
To fight communism.
To prevent them from conquering South Vietnam.
Communist North Vietnam successfully re-united with it's southern half, creating one communist Vietnam country.Unification forthe country of Vietnam.
No- you did not get to choose, you had to go. If they said for you to go, you got to go but you had to be 18 or older. TRUST ME- I'M IN 6TH GRADE AND I JUST LEARNED ABOUT THE VIETNAM WAR!!
Almost half correct but sort of turned around a bit. The Korean War began that way in 1950. The Vietnam war began by infiltration in 1955 (slowly escalating in guerrilla buildup and strength). The Vietnam war ended by a North Vietnamese Army invasion of RVN (Republic of South Vietnam).
no country wants to go to war
