Paha777 [63]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:The expansion of the railroads in the late 1800s was instrumental in helping the US economy boom. It did this in two ways. First, the railroads created a tremendous amount of demand for goods and labor on their own. As the railroads were being built, they needed huge numbers of people to build them.

Which Vietnam policy came first in the Johnson Administration?
nexus9112 [7]

The ACTUAL correct answer is:  A. Gulf of Tonkin Resolution

Dates of the items listed:

  • Gulf of Tonkin Resolution: 1964
  • Operation Rolling Thunder:  1965-1968
  • Tet Offensive:  1968
  • Vietnamization:  began 1969, under Nixon Administration

Further detail on Gulf of Tonkin Resolution:

The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, passed by Congress in August, 1964, after alleged attacks on two US naval ships in the Gulf of Tonkin.  The key wording in the resolution said:

  • <em>Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that the Congress approves and supports the determination of the President, as Commander in Chief, to take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further aggression.</em>

That resolution served as a blank check for President Johnson to send troops to whatever extent he deemed necessary in pursuance of the war.  Between 1964 and the end of Johnson's presidency in 1969, US troop levels in Vietnam increased from around 20,000 to over 500,000.
