France stopped the Vietnamese half-way down their country. They wanted to push on to reunite the country. They asked for our help. We ignored them until it became a US/Soviet issue. Then we stepped in to stop them from reuniting their country. We went to war and we lost -- then they reunited their country. BTW, the French business interests, primarily in rubber, never left Vietnam. Have you been there by the way?
