The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War.
September 26, 1959[1] to April 30, 1975
The United States entered the war to prevent a communist takeover of South Vietnam as part of their wider strategy of containment.
The war exacted a huge human cost in terms of fatalities including 3 to 4 million Vietnamese from both sides, 1.5 to 2 million Laotians and Cambodians, and 58,159 U.S. soldiers.[15] By this war's end, the Vietnamese had been fighting foreign involvement or occupation in various wars for over a hundred years.

Thank you for starting to rectify the issue with your homework. It is appreciated.

3. The homework from Tuesday night - needs to be posted by the end of tonight.
4. A reading reflection - needs to be posted by the end of tonight. I suggest you start reading the class novel for next term, "To Kill A Mockingbird".
