Abstract
The second Indochina War, as the political scientist and economist Bernard Fall (1963, 1972) called it, was the longest war in American history. The first of almost 59,000 Americans killed in action died there in 1960 and the last in 1973. The American military was there in some force in 1954 (not counting OSS missions during World War II) and U.S. Marines were killed in the area as late as 1975 (Mayaguez casualties).
