Vietnam War Before 1964

[travisab1]

The Vietnam War actually started in 1954, yes, 1954. Does anybody know anyone that fought in Vietnam before 1964?
The Army Identifies the Vietnam War started in December 1961.
If anyone out there participated in the Vietnam War while serving on a ship in the air or batteling Those B's in the North while running through Agent Orange or Agent Blue infested jungles before 1964 please let me know. Both Agent Orange and Agent Blue was used from 1961 on to I believe 1971 or 1972. I have a lot of documentation concerning that era. Some of my fellow Veteran's didn't get recogonized for teaching the South how to use weapons and being shot, dismembered or killed while doing so. These same Veteran's fought side by side with them also.
