The Vietnam War was a long, costly conflict between the communist regime of North Vietnam and South Vietnam and its ally, the United States.
More than 3 million people, including 58,000 Americans, were killed in the conflict.
![Page 14: 1960 1969 2016mrscarllsrhs2016.weebly.com/uploads/7/9/8/4/7984859/d_-_1960s_america.pdf1960 1969 2016 A new house $12,700 $15,500 $180,000 Average income $5,315 $8,540 $47,529 A gallon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022071423/611e1c34ce4a047f4f456769/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The war in Vietnam became the government’s top priority. Soon after he took office, Present Johnson committed to a full-scale war.
In 1964, Congress authorized the president to take “all necessary measures” to protect American soldiers and their allies from the communist Viet Cong. Within days, the draft began.

The war dragged on, and it divided the nation. Some young people took to the streets in protest, while others fled to Canada to avoid the draft.
Meanwhile, many of their parents formed a “silent majority” in support of the war.
