Description
Cambodia and Laos American involvement in these countries began in 1961, when President John Kennedy sent in teams of U.S. Special Forces to aid guerrillas against the Laotian communists and their North Vietnamese allies, and continued through the resultant 1975 communist Khmer Rouge victory in Cambodia. When the Khmer Rouge defeated the American-backed government of Lon Nol in 1975, an estimated two million peasant refugees faced starvation, terror and eventually slaughter. Peace is at Hand (1968 - 1973) While American and Vietnamese soldiers continued to clash in battle, diplomats in Paris argued about making peace. After more than four years, they reached an accord that proved to be a preface to further bloodshed.
