False, US involvement in Vietnam was not reduced during the Kennedy administration.

During the "COLD WAR"; the Vietnam War was immoral to most people...who believed that war was "immoral" to begin with. Example: During WWII, which was a "clear case" of self defense (the Pearl Harbor Attack), people in the US still protested US involvement in that war. The "...reasons about the Vietnam War", would be the same; war is immoral, for those that choose to believe it. For many people there is NO JUSTIFICATION for war.
The U.S. involvement peaked in Vietnam in 1968. It was also the year for the highest number of casualties.
