Did a military defeat led by France to pull its former colony of vietnam happen first or did the U.S. become involved in a war in Vietnam?

US involvement began in Vietnam before the French defeat. Military advisers, intelligence, weapons, aircraft and the full support of the CIA's Air America. Vietnam was a French colony from the 1860s till 1940, when it was seized by Japan. Ho Chi Minh organized a resistance movement against the Japanese (and also against French collaborators). In the later stages of World War 2 the U.S. sent miliatary advisers to Ho Chi Minh and President Roosevelt promised the Vietnamese that if they threw the Japanese out of the country they would get independence after World War 2. In 1946 the French 'repossessed' Vietnam and the guerrilla war continued. The French suffered a devasting defeat in 1954 and withdrew. The country was then divided into North and South. The North was Communist; the South was very badly governed by a bizarre anti-Communist regime. Gradually, the U.S. inceased its involvement. Large scale U.S. involvement dates from about 1961 onwards.
