Ask us anythingWhich statement about the Gulf of Tonkin incident is true?
The Gulf of Tonkin incident refers to two separate confrontations between North Vietnam and the United States in August 1964, which were used to justify increased U.S. military involvement in Vietnam. The first incident allegedly involved a U.S. destroyer, the USS Maddox, being attacked, while the second incident, involving the USS Turner Joy, was later disputed and considered to be based on misinterpretations. The incident led to the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, giving President Lyndon B. Johnson broader powers to escalate military action in Vietnam.
