Allegedly two naval destroyers of USA were destroyed in the waters of the Gulf of Tonkin. This was the event after which USA began its full scale involvement in the Vietnam war.

Explanation:

USA had been scaling and patrolling around the water of the Gulf of Tornkin for quite a lot of time as it bordered the waters of Vietnam which was beginning to become a war zone with the temperature rising and tensions up with the Soviet Union.

The ships were torpedoes allegedly by the soviets or the Vietnamese. This gave USA the final call to officially enter the war which they had not done until then and were staying away from for diplomatic reasons.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The answer is option D.

Explanation: Jimmy Carter was elected as 39th president of America by defeating Gerald Ford.

Carter presented himself as a reformer to the voter who could bring change. He also took advantage of presidential pardon of Nixon by president Ford.

4. How might the location of the Philippines be beneficial to the US?
QveST [7]
<span>the Philippines has emerged as what Carter in January termed “a central part” of the Obama administration’s rebalance, particularly in the security realm. In no small part due to China’s growing assertiveness in the South China Sea, Manila has cemented itself as a key location for America’s military presence; an exemplar of partnering both with Washington as well as its regional allies like Japan and Australia; and an upholder of international principles in the maritime security domain. </span>
