Was it to save the world that the US spent trillions of dollars, protecting paddy fields from the dirty rotten commies from the North Vietnam? You could have bought the entire country for 10% of what you spent and not lost a single man.
And they were protecting a despot who ruled the south.
The arms race was the biggest con the world has known. Both populations were tricked into spending a fortune to build weapons, so that the arms makers could prosper.
