Vietnam wasn't fighting anybody in 1964 because there was no country named Vietnam.
There were two nations, one called North Vietnam and another called South Vietnam. Just like the states North Carolina and South Carolina or North Dakota and South Dakota in America...FOUR separate states!
In 1964 North Vietnam became engaged in war with America; after the Tonkin Gulf naval battle(s) in August 1964.
It was fighting for democracy and against communism.
America fought against North Vietnam, in an unsuccessful attempt to defeat its invasion and conquest of South Vietnam.
Eisenhower's Testerones level
The United States didn't fight against South Vietnam in fact they were allies fighting against North Vietnam.
The NVA and the VC (North Vietnamese Army and the Viet Cong).
US citizen's who wanted to stop communism were FOR fighting against communism.
No, fighting has never occurred in the U.S. Not against any foreign enemies. There were several clashes between war protesters against government troops and police.
Communism is when the government makes your decisions for you such as when you get food. Vietnam is a communist country. That is how the Vietnam war occurred, the us was fighting against North Vietnam to end the idea of communism.
They didn't, the British were in Burma & India fighting against the Japanese Army during WWII.
The US got involved in the Vietnam was because they were trying to sweep out communism across the globe. In the war, the US supported South Vietnam because they were fighting against communist North Vietnam.
A war against communist aggression. True, but what do you mean by "What was the Vietnam?" Do you mean the war? or something else? Plus south vietnam was fighting the north so they would not become communist not because of aggresion
The Viet Cong (VC) were Communist sympathizers living in SOUTH Vietnam. Very organized, wearing what-ever uniforms and using what-ever weapons they could get their hands on; and fighting primarily as organized guerillas against the Government of South Vietnam. The VC were pretty well destroyed as a fighting force during the TET offensive of 1968; and the war fairly well shifted to the NVA (North Vietnamese Army), after 1968.
