The term "escalation" is the accepted historically accurate term. But what really happened was the shifting of a "guerrilla" war in South Vietnam (RVN=Republic of South Vietnam) to a "conventional" war in South Vietnam AND open warfare against North Vietnam on or after the Tonkin Gulf sea battles (called incidents) on 02 & 04 August 1964.
Vietnam was so touchy, that special terms had to be applied by the US administration, some examples follow:
1. The two sea battles in August 1964 were called "incidents."
2. The invasion of Cambodia on 01 May 1970 was called an "incursion."
3. Vietnam War is sometimes called "Vietnam Conflict"; which would also make the US Civil War a "Conflict" since it was not a declared war either.
