San Diego State University professor Pierre Asselin taught a class on the Vietnam War, looking at the conflict from U.S. escalation in 1965 to the fall of Saigon in 1975. He described the tactics of both sides and outlined how the South Vietnamese were supported by American forces, while the North Vietnamese received supplies from both China and the Soviet Union. He argued that the United States was in Vietnam to prove the viability of capitalism and the American system of government. close
