Green Berets Vietnam

The Vietnam War started earlier than the United Sates and Communist contribution in the 1960's and 70's. The accounts of Vietnam date back to the early 20th Century, this is how many Vietnamese viewed Vietnam in the 20th Century.

Although America was already involved in Vietnam, Eisenhower expanded our involvement that eventually led the United States to superseding in Iran, Guatemala, The Congo, and Cuba. While serving his first term Eisenhower selected General James Doolittle to the leader of a secret study of the CIA’s ability to counteract Russian activities.
