So I did some reading, Seeing I was only 6 months old when Kennedy was assassinated and not able to form my own opinion, and it was actually Eisenhower that got us involved in Vietnam....In 1956 The US took over responsibilty for training South Vietnamese Forces from the French....Eisenhowers Watch

The 1st American Combat Troops, the 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade, Arrived in 1965...2 years after Kennedy was dead. Johnson was the Man then.

But If it makes you feel better to blame Kennedy and the Media....have a Ball
