*Re:<<JFK had little choice but to send in troops as was promised by Ike>>* mongo, that statement is such a canard. American history is replete with administration changes and change of plans. It was over two years into his watch when he dramatically raised the stakes. Re:<<He also made this decision based upon the military advisors he had at the time, a bunch of incompetent a-holes who also advised him on the bay of pigs, which was also a disaster. >> Kennedy had many advisors. His problem was more the ones that he chose to listen to. Eisenhower never promised combat troops to RVN. He in fact warned against it. Kennedy stepped off that pier all by himself. Get your facts straight.
