No one that I know of refers to it as the Vietnam police action. But without a declaration of war from congress it was not technically/legally/officially a war. You are fighting with the dictionary at this point.The Vietnam War was an undeclared war and hence is sometimes described as a police action.
Sooooo, the government? Or someone within the government? Which is it that is saying this?
Because the average American that is fool of cookery would definitely say, it was a war. But someone within the government or the government (you tell me) is saying it was a police action n
