    How many years did the Vietnam War last?

    Question #9858. Asked by winterrose.

    Depends on your definition of Vietnam War. America's 'official' front-line troop involvement was from March 1965 until March 1973 (8 years). However really the war started when Ho Chi Minh declared Vietnam independent on September 2 1945 and finished with the fall of Saigon on April 30 1975 (30 years 8 months). The 10,000 Day war.

    Technically, there was no Vietnam War. War is enacted by congress forced on by Naval Blockade. This never happened. The president's used their executive powers to push foriegn policy/military decisions at that time.
    (But, history will write that as a technicality, and the Vietnam conflict lasted 10,000 days)
