Japanese aircraft based at Saigon, the day after Pearl Harbor, flew out and sank the British HMS Prince of Wales and the HMS Repulse, This battleship and battlecruiser were sailing, without escort or air cover, to the relief of Singapore. Coming immediately after the damage done by aircraft to the US battleships of the Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor the day before, conservative navy admirals had to rethink their assumptions about the ability of large, capital ships to defend themselves against air attack.
Saigon was part of French Indochina. The Germans had overrun France and installed the collaborationist Vicky regime there, which "invited" the Japanese to help themselves to Indochina in the summer of 1941. Resistance to the Japanese began almost thirtyfive years of uninterrupted warfare in Vietnam.
Saigon, known today as Ho Chi Minh City, was significantly affected by World War II as it was under Japanese occupation from 1940 to 1945. Following the war, it became a focal point in the First Indochina War as Vietnamese nationalists fought for independence from French colonial rule. During the Korean War (1950-1953), Saigon was not directly involved, but it was part of the broader context of Cold War tensions in Southeast Asia, with the U.S. supporting the French and later the South Vietnamese government.
