The Fall of Saigon
This document provides context and background on the fall of Saigon in April 1975 when South Vietnam surrendered to North Vietnamese forces. It describes how North Vietnamese forces advanced and captured major cities in South Vietnam leading up to the capture of Saigon. As the North Vietnamese forces approached Saigon, the U.S. initiated evacuations of American civilians and South Vietnamese refugees. On April 30th, 1975, North Vietnamese forces captured Saigon, effectively ending the Vietnam War and reunifying Vietnam under communist rule.
Vietnam War Overview
The Vietnam War began in 1954 as an effort by the United States to prevent the spread of communism in Southeast Asia. Under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, U.S. involvement escalated through military advising and direct combat troops. The 1968 Tet Offensive turned U.S. public opinion against the war as it showed the Viet Cong were not close to defeat. Growing anti-war protests and the release of the Pentagon Papers further eroded support. Under President Nixon, Vietnamization transitioned fighting to the South Vietnamese army but Saigon fell to North Vietnam in 1975, marking the end of the war.
The Vietnam War
The document provides an overview of the Vietnam War, including key events, leaders, and causes. It describes how the war began as a conflict between North Vietnam and South Vietnam in 1959 and escalated with US involvement throughout the 1960s. Major figures discussed are Ho Chi Minh of North Vietnam and presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Richard Nixon of the US.
America Bitter End In Viet Nam
The document discusses the fall of Saigon and the end of the Vietnam War on April 30, 1975. It describes how the US evacuation began after the "White Christmas" song was played on the radio as a signal to start the evacuation. Thousands of Vietnamese civilians and soldiers fled the city in a panic as North Vietnamese forces advanced and captured Saigon within 55 days. The last US military flights airlifted evacuees from Saigon to offshore US ships, but many Vietnamese allies were left behind as the US withdrew from the long and bitter war in Vietnam.
Vietnam war
The Vietnam War was America's longest and most expensive war, lasting from 1954 to 1975 and deeply dividing the American public. It began as an effort to prevent communist domination of Southeast Asia according to the domino theory and involved massive U.S. military escalation under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson in support of South Vietnam against North Vietnam and communist insurgents. The war ended with the fall of Saigon in 1975 and an American withdrawal after failed peace negotiations.
THE VIETNAM WAR
The Vietnam War was a conflict between North Vietnam and South Vietnam that lasted from 1955 to 1975. It began as a war between Vietnam and France, which led to the country being divided along the 17th parallel in 1954. This division created North Vietnam, backed by Communist China and the Soviet Union, and South Vietnam, backed by the United States. Despite peace agreements, fighting continued and grew until the United States directly intervened in 1965. After years of heavy casualties and domestic opposition, the US withdrew from Vietnam in 1973, and North Vietnam captured South Vietnam's capital in 1975, reunifying the country under communist rule.
Lyndon Baines Johnson
Lyndon B. Johnson was the 36th president of the United States from 1963 to 1968. As president, Johnson launched ambitious social programs as part of his Great Society agenda, including Medicare, Medicaid, and programs to fight poverty. However, he also escalated US involvement in the Vietnam War, despite public opposition that grew over his presidency. Facing a difficult reelection battle in 1968, Johnson withdrew from the race and did not seek another term as president.

Vietnam Why did America lose the Vietnam War AQA
The document discusses reasons why America lost the Vietnam War. It argues that the war was lost in Washington D.C., not in Vietnam, as defeatist politicians, an adversarial press, and the anti-war movement undermined the military effort. American leaders based their strategy on domestic politics rather than battlefield conditions. Additionally, North Vietnam and the Viet Cong fought tenaciously and were willing to suffer more casualties than the US. Ultimately, declining public support for the war in the US weakened the country's resolve.
Vietnam War
Vietnam is located in Southeast Asia. During the Cold War era, Vietnam was divided into North Vietnam and South Vietnam along the 17th parallel. North Vietnam was communist while South Vietnam was democratic and backed by the United States. Despite U.S. involvement and bombing campaigns, North Vietnam and the Viet Cong defeated South Vietnam and unified the country under communist rule in 1975. The Vietnam War resulted in over 3 million deaths and had lasting impacts on both Vietnam and the United States.
The Vietnam War
The document provides background information on the Vietnam War. It discusses the colonial history of Vietnam and the division of Vietnam following the 1954 Geneva Conference. This led to war between North and South Vietnam as North Vietnam and the Viet Cong fought to reunify the country under communist rule. The US intervened on behalf of South Vietnam to stop the spread of communism. The war lasted over 20 years and involved major US troop escalations and offensives from both sides, ultimately resulting in a North Vietnamese victory in 1975.
Vietnam war
The Vietnam War lasted from 1954 to 1975 and involved military engagement between North Vietnam and South Vietnam, with the United States backing South Vietnam. France had previously controlled Vietnam but withdrew after their defeat at Dien Bien Phu in 1954. This led to Vietnam being divided along the 17th parallel, with communist North Vietnam controlling the north and US-backed South Vietnam controlling the south. Tensions rose and the US became increasingly involved, sending military advisors to support South Vietnam against North Vietnam and communist Viet Cong forces in the south. Major events of the war included the Gulf of Tonkin incident leading to increased US bombing of North Vietnam, the Tet Offensive of 1968, and the fall of Saigon in 1975 when North Vietnam defeated

Key events included the division of Vietnam along the 17th parallel in 1954, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution that escalated US involvement, and the Tet Offensive that turned US public opinion against the war. Tactics like search and destroy bombings, use of napalm and agent orange took a toll on Vietnamese civilians and the environment. Protests against the war within the US grew until the US withdrawal was completed in 1973, ending in the fall of Saigon to communist forces in 1975.

Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War
Australia's military involvement in the Vietnam War was the longest in duration of any war in Australia's history.
The arrival of the Australian Army Training Team Vietnam (AATTV) in South Vietnam during July and August 1962 was the beginning of Australia's involvement in the Vietnam War. Australia's participation in the war was formally declared at an end when the Governor-General issued a proclamation on 11 January 1973. The only combat troops remaining in Vietnam were a platoon guarding the Australian embassy in Saigon, which was withdrawn in June 1973.
The Australian commitment consisted predominantly of army personnel, but significant numbers of air force and navy personnel and some civilians also took part.
Vietnam War Powerpoint presentation
The Vietnam War was a proxy war between communist North Vietnam, backed by China and the Soviet Union, and South Vietnam, backed by the United States and other anti-communist countries. After France withdrew from Vietnam in 1954, the US increasingly intervened to prevent a communist takeover of South Vietnam. US involvement escalated throughout the 1960s, with massive bombing campaigns and increasing troop deployment. However, North Vietnamese forces and Viet Cong guerrillas continued their resistance. Public opinion in the US turned against the war as casualties mounted. The US withdrew from Vietnam in 1973, and North Vietnamese forces conquered South Vietnam in 1975.
Vietnam War by Associated Press photographers
The Associated Press photographers in Saigon captured powerful images that showed the realities and human toll of the Vietnam War. Their photos included scenes of wounded civilians and soldiers, children fleeing attacks, and grieving families. The AP coverage earned multiple Pulitzer Prizes and helped show Americans the harsh realities of the war.
The Vietnam War
The United States became involved in Vietnam in the 1950s to contain the spread of communism in Asia according to the domino theory. The US supported the French in their colonial war and later the South Vietnamese government against communist insurgents. Over time, US involvement escalated and led to widespread domestic protest as the war dragged on without clear success. Key events like the Tet Offensive turned public opinion against the war. The Vietnam War ended in 1975 with a communist victory in Vietnam after the US withdrew.

The Vietnam War was a conflict between North Vietnam and South Vietnam that lasted from 1955 to 1975. It began as a war between Vietnam and France but later expanded with the United States supporting South Vietnam to contain the spread of communism. Despite massive U.S. military involvement, the war ended with a communist victory in 1975 as North Vietnam unified the country under communist rule.
Vietnam War
The Vietnam War lasted from 1954 to 1975 and consisted of three phases. Phase 1 was a war of independence against the French which ended in French defeat in 1954. This led to the partitioning of Vietnam into communist North Vietnam and democratic South Vietnam. Phase 2 saw escalating American military involvement under presidents Kennedy and Johnson following the Gulf of Tonkin Incident. Despite escalation, the US struggled against Vietnamese guerrilla forces. Phase 3 was the Vietnamese Civil War from 1973-1975, which resulted in a final North Vietnamese victory and reunification of Vietnam under communist rule.
The Vietnam War
The document provides background information on the Vietnam War. It discusses:
- The war lasted from 1955 to 1975 between North Vietnam and the US-backed South Vietnamese government.
- Over 58,000 US troops and millions of Vietnamese civilians and soldiers were killed. The war cost the US $168-200 billion.
- The war escalated under presidents Kennedy and Johnson as the US increased support to South Vietnam against the North Vietnamese-backed Viet Cong. Heavy US bombing began in 1965 and US troop levels rose to over 500,000.
- Despite massive US military involvement, North Vietnam was able to withstand the attacks and launch the devastating Tet Offensive in 1968, weakening US public support for the war. Peace talks
Lesson 1 the vietnam war background
The document provides a summary of the key events of the Vietnam War. It began as a civil war between the communist North Vietnam led by Ho Chi Minh and the non-communist South Vietnam led by Ngo Dinh Diem. However, the conflict was rooted in Vietnam's history as a French colony. After World War 2, Vietnam was temporarily divided along the 17th parallel, with elections promised to reunify the country by 1956. However, the US opposed Ho Chi Minh and backed Diem, escalating their involvement over time and widening the war until a peace agreement in 1973 after significant US troop losses and protests at home. The North then reunified Vietnam under communist rule.
Us involvement in the vietnam war 1
The US involvement in the Vietnam War can be divided into 3 stages:
1. 1945-1964: Initial assistance to France and South Vietnam against communist forces.
2. 1964-1968: Escalation under President Johnson, with troop levels rising from 15,000 to 500,000. Intensified bombing and fighting failed to defeat North Vietnam.
3. 1969-1973: Nixon's Vietnamization policy attempted to transition fighting to South Vietnamese forces and reduce US troops, culminating in the 1973 Paris Peace Accords. However, South Vietnam ultimately fell to communist forces in 1975.

This document summarizes how UK local and regional newspapers are responding to changes in online media consumption. It finds that newspapers are experimenting with social media like blogging and microblogging on Twitter, focusing more on hyperlocal content through community sites organized by postcode, and utilizing multimedia content across platforms like video and audio on mobile. It also discusses organizational changes newspapers are making, like restructuring newsrooms, appointing multimedia editors, and setting up community teams, to adapt to these new demands and opportunities of online and social media.
Conversation With A Debtor
The document discusses the difference between change and decline in a business and what credit managers need to know to make accurate assessments. It provides definitions for change, reversible decline, and irreversible decline. It argues that credit managers need to understand the origin of changes in results, management's plans and access to capital, and should ask questions to assess the situation rather than make assumptions. The document includes examples of good and bad questions credit managers should ask themselves and their customers to have productive two-way communication.

Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving Cars
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

Us involvement in the vietnam war 1
The US involvement in the Vietnam War can be divided into 3 stages:
1) 1945-1964 where the US assisted France and later South Vietnam
2) 1964-1968 saw escalation under President Johnson as US troops grew from 15,000 to 500,000
3) 1969-1973 was Nixon's Vietnamization strategy which aimed to gradually withdraw US troops while strengthening South Vietnam.
Vietnam War
The Vietnam War began as a conflict between France and Vietnam in the 1950s, resulting in France withdrawing from Vietnam in 1954. This split Vietnam into communist North Vietnam, backed by the Soviet Union and China, and non-communist South Vietnam, backed by the United States. The US grew increasingly involved in the war to prevent the spread of communism in Southeast Asia. Despite massive US bombing campaigns and troop deployment, North Vietnam and the Viet Cong defeated South Vietnam and unified the country under communist rule in 1975. The Vietnam War was highly controversial in the US and resulted in over 58,000 American deaths.
Research paper
The Vietnam War was a significant event in American history that sparked widespread protests. The Viet Cong relied on the Ho Chi Minh Trail to transport supplies through jungles and tunnels to evade American forces. The U.S. used helicopters and defoliating chemicals like Agent Orange to fight back. Major political figures like presidents Johnson and Nixon escalated U.S. involvement, while protests against the war grew due to events like the Kent State shootings and draft of Muhammad Ali. The war ended U.S. involvement in 1973 but had lasting impacts on American society and politics.

The US used helicopters and defoliating agents like Agent Orange, dropping over 19 million gallons to expose the enemy. The Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964 led to increased US involvement after reported attacks on US ships. Key figures who influenced the war effort included presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon as well as military leaders McNamara, Kissinger, Giap, and Thieu. Mass protests erupted over the expansion of the war into Cambodia and the killing of students at Kent State and Jackson State
