Actually..that was done by FDR. The first American to die in Viet Nam (French Indo China) died in an ambush in September 23, 1945. Major A. Peter Dewey Some 128 members of a MAAG began supervising the use of U. S. equipment in Vietnam on Sept. 17, 1950. And two U. S. fliers contracted by the CIA were killed in action flying a mission over Dien Bien Phu in 1954. The first U. S. advisors sent to actually train Vietnamese troops arrived Feb. 12, 1955. Air Force Tech Sgt. Richard B Fitzgibbon, Jr. murdered in Vietnam by a fellow airman on June 8, 1956 Capt. Harry Cramer, Jr. was killed in a munitions handling accident Oct. 21, 1957 Gunner -- "First Law of Leftist Debate The more you present a leftist with factual evidence that is counter to his preconceived world view and the more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot, homophobe approaches infinity. This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to the subject." Grey Ghost

We could have pulled them out without loosing face when the So. Vietnamese government (Diem) fucked up. Ike left it to the new president - JFK - to decide when to either whack Diem and/or pull the plug. http://www.historyplace.com/unitedstates/vietnam/index-1961.html is pretty good. Replace "South Veitnamese commandos" with SEAL 1 operating under CIA.
