The Gulf of Tonkin incident in August 1964 escalated U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, as it prompted Congress to pass the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. This resolution granted President Lyndon B. Johnson broad authority to use military force in Vietnam without a formal declaration of war. The incident heightened tensions between the U.S. and North Vietnam, leading to increased American troop deployments and a significant escalation of the conflict. Ultimately, it set the stage for a prolonged and controversial military engagement.
