I don't think there is one. Our involvement was so gradual that you can't fix a date for it. We were diplomatically involved in the original rebellion against the French because of our involvement in WWII. After the establishment of North and South Vietnam we were immediately a supporter of South Vietnam, providing it diplomatic, economic and military aid. President Eisenhower sent a small number (around 50 I think) of military advisors to help the South Vietnamese army. Kennedy incresed the number of advisors and allowed them to begin engaging in conbat. Johnson sent in still more troops, not advisors, and incresed their combat role. Then, after the Gulf of Tonkin incident, he rapidly incresed the number of troops and U.S. forces began doing most of the fighting. Michael Montagne Gulf of Tonkin Aug. 2, 1964 North Vietnamese torpedo boats attacked the U.S. destroyer, Maddox, in the Gulf of Tonkin. President Johnson ordered air strikes against North Vietnam after a second, unconfirmed attack on the U.S. destroyer C. Turner Joy. Aug. 7, 1964 - Congress approved use of
Ho Chi Minh was the President of North Vietnam from 1945 to 1969, Ton Duc Thong became President of North Vietnam after Ho died, and later became President of Vietnam when the war ended.
Robert Strange McNamara was the Defense Secretary of the United States from 196 until 1968. he served under both John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson.

President John F. Kennedy sent Special Forces called Green Beret to the Vietnam War. By: Sameer Iqbal
President's Wilson (Allied intervention in Russia), Truman (Korea), Kennedy (Vietnam, Cuba), Johnson (Vietnam), Nixon (Vietnam), Ford (Mayaguez incident), and Reagan (Grenada). If one considers the U-2 incident to be a military action, you could include President Eisenhower.
Obviously he did not succeed since Johnson was sworn in as President. I think he lost his nerve and did not try to kill Johnson.
They loved Lyndon for awhile until the Vietnam War became too costly. Andrew was never very popular because people saw him as a Southern sympathizer.
Johnson's war policy was unpopular with many people. Draft age men, in particular, did not think the war necessary and opposed it. Others thought it should be an all-out declared war and critized the limited involvement that Johnson tried at first.
I think it is Andrew Johnson,
Democrat, I think
No c;
There were two Johnson’s as president and we don’t know which you ask about. This is asking for your opinion as well.
i think because he also tryed to help it
The first president of Southern Vietnam was Ngo Dinh Diem. But as I said, he was the first. I think there is another post on here that has that same question, so good luck, and sorry I can't give any more information!
