Why and How the Vietnam war started.

Us Americans were trying to stop the spread of communism and they helped south Vietnam because the US thought they were the last chance to stop communism so they helped and helped and helped and eventually they were sucked into the war and they couldn't get out of the war. Communist tensions started right after WWII. The US was committed to stop the spread of communism. All leading to 1965 when we became fully involved in the war.
