=Why did the United States get involved?=


 * The united States officially joined the war in 1961. One reason the United states got involved in the vietnam war was to contain the spread of communism. They also wanted to send a message to russia of how powerful they were with all of their new technology. The main reason was that they got involved was because they were attacked at multiple air bases and because of the Gulf Of Tonkin attack which included the destroyer Uss Maddox being attacked by Veitnamese Patrol boats. The reason why they joined put into a nut shell is to simply stop the spread of communism. **
