After Kennedy Lyndon Johnson elected in 1964, a gradual increase in troops would occur under his leadership. While the war is initially supported, over time as war continues, support wanes. First instance of graphic footage shown to the public. What is seen prior? 1968 is the pivotal year.

Escalation of Vietnam French were involved in conflict since We aided the French, then made it our own conflict in the mid 1960s. It lasts nearly ten years, with the final blow coming when Saigon is taken by the Viet-Cong in 1975 and South Vietnam falls to Communism. By 1968 we would have over 500,000 troops there. Draft is active in USA.

1968 Tet Offensive in 1968 leads many to believe the war may never be won. Walter Cronkite issues opinion, President does not run for reelection. Protests increase, as more college students burn draft cards. Middle Class still supports the war effort, calling the protestors spoiled rich kids. – Many of the draftees were poor, could not attend college. Soldiers are called “baby killers” for propaganda spread during the war.

Détente and an End to Vietnam North Vietnam (Communist) would overrun South Vietnam in 1975, two years after the American departure. By this time, Era of détente begins. – A relaxing of aggression towards the United States. Nixon goes to China in 1972, a Communist country. Soviets take notice, and wonder if Nixon is attempting to steal China from the Russians. In reality, Nixon is also looking for a détente in the Cold War.

I promoted the institution of Purgatory for sinners. 8. I do not allow extravagance, eliminating everything from dancing to sleeping in church. 9. I eliminated the excessive spending of the past, and returned to a modest living situation. 10. I left the Church to gain an annulment, and control religion in England.
