Unit Description
While ethnic turmoil raged on in the U.S. with urban riots giving rise to Black Power groups, tensions were escalating on the other side of the world—in Southeast Asia.
Promises and commitments to the people and government of South Vietnam to keep Communist forces from overtaking them reached back to the Truman Administration. Eisenhower had placed military advisers and CIA operatives in Vietnam, and John F. Kennedy sent American soldiers to Vietnam. Lyndon Johnson ordered the first real combat by American troops, and Richard Nixon concluded the war.
