There is no particular date whereby historians can claim by logic or certain evidence that American support of the war in Vietnam ended. In the opinion of many people, however, a case can be made for 1968 as that point. This can be debated on the basis that the US president that expanded the Vietnam War, President Johnson, decided not to run again for office in 1968. War deaths were mounting and protests were increasing.Both US candidates for president promised to end the war if they were elected. It can be reasoned that since two Democratic presidents, Kennedy and Johnson were the main "parts" of the beginning and increased participation of the war, the American public decided to give the Republican nominee the votes needed to elect Republican Nixon to the presidency.
It goes without saying that there are numerous other points of view.
Military conscription; 40,000 men a month by 1968.

Vietnam is a war which the US definitely lost because the goal of the war was to support the Republic of Vietnam (aka South Vietnam) and prevent it from falling to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (aka North Vietnam). Despite massive effort and sacrifice on the part of the US, South Vietnam collapsed in 1975.

yes we did lose the war in Vietnam when we were helping the South Vietnamese Army. If we have permission to engage the enemy in a firefight, then we won't lose at all.
The French were fighting in Vietnam in 1950 not the US.
