Bereits im September 1950 entsandte Präsident Harry Truman Militärberater (Military Assistance Advisory Group (MAAG)) nach Vietnam, um die Franzosen im 1. Indochinakrieg zu unterstützen.

Präsident John F Kennedy befahl einige verdeckte Militäroperationen gegen Nordvietnam an und erhöhte die Zahl der U.S. Militärberater in Südvietnam bis 1962 von 400 auf 16'575.
