In early 1965, the United States had about 23,000 troops in South
Vietnam. Through that date, 140 Americans had been killed in
action, 1,138 had been wounded and 11 were listed as missing. On
March 8, American combat troops (Battalion Landing Team 3, Ninth
Marines of the 3d Marine Division) came ashore at 9:02 a.m. on Red
Beach 2: by June 1, 1965, 50,000 troops were stationed in the
country. The escalation had begun. This is a chronological listing
of over 600 Army and marine combat operations from 1965 through
1973. Each entry includes the dates, name, location, type of
action, units involved, events (individual activities within the
area of operations), casualties, and resulting political or
military activity. Information was derived in part from official
documents. Interspersed chronologically are brief summaries of
significant events that affected the conduct of the war, such as
major developments, ceasefires, political observations, and troop
strength.
