The United States' involvement in Vietnam began in the late 1950s as part of its broader strategy to contain communism during the Cold War. Initially, the U.S. provided economic and military aid to the French colonial forces fighting against the Viet Minh, a communist-led nationalist group. After France's withdrawal in 1954, the U.S. supported the anti-communist government of South Vietnam, escalating its commitment with military advisors and support in the early 1960s. This involvement ultimately deepened, leading to full-scale military engagement following the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964.

Vietnam itself was never a threat to the United States. The operative philosophy was the "domino theory" which held that if communists took over South Vietnam, they would then immediately begin subverting neighboring countries, and when they took them over they would subvert their new neighbors, and so on like a line of dominoes.
