Abstract:
Beginning in 1965, the United States increased military aid to the government of the Republic of Vietnam with the aim of reversing the military balance in South Vietnam. Direct military aid was the largest component, encompassing: salary payments for the ARVN (Army of the Republic of Vietnam), infrastructure construction, weapons procurement, and military training. As a result of U.S. aid, the ARVN was expanded and modernized. However, U.S. assistance failed to help the United States achieve victory in the Vietnam War.
