The Vietnam War didn't begin with a declaration; it began with a decision. Then another. And another. In this overview, we trace the arc of America's tragic entanglement in Vietnam, from cautious postwar containment policies to the fall of Saigon. Through coups, cover-ups, and combat, this is the story of how the U.S. slid into a conflict that claimed over 58,000 American lives and left a nation questioning everything, its leadership, its ideals, and its place in the world.
This is not just the story of a war. It's the story of how history happens, one choice at a time.
