The Vietnam War began in 1945, but i'm going to tell you about the most important events during 1960s. President of the U.S. John F. Kennedy believed that America could stop the war by sending the Green Berets ("Special Advisors") to the South Vietnam to train their soldiers. Lyndon B. Johnson (the 36th president of the U.S.) focused on American military effort in Vietnam. It caused more than 1,000 American soldiers deaths per month. In 1960s the U.S. focused on technological innovation and military effects, where Vietnam played as a experimental resource.
