Answer:  General William Westmoreland

Details:  President Lyndon Johnson appointed General William Westmoreland to replace General Paul Harkins as head of the United States Military Assistance Command Vietnam (MACV) in June, 1964.  

The buildup of American military presence in Vietnam from 16,000 troops to over 500,000 troops occurred under Westmoreland's leadership, as well as President Johnson's initiative.  The ongoing stalemate in Vietnam, in spite of those enormous troop increases, brought about much anti-war sentiment back home in the United States.  Plenty of the dissatisfaction was aimed at General Westmoreland.  In 1968, President Johnson replaced Westmoreland with General Creighton Abrams as head of MACV.

What is the cult of personality
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A cult of personality, or cult of the leader,[1] arises when a country's regime – or, more rarely, an individual – uses the techniques of mass media, propaganda, the big lie, spectacle, the arts, patriotism, and government-organized demonstrations and rallies to create an idealized, heroic, and worshipful image of a leader, often through unquestioning flattery and praise. A cult of personality is similar to apotheosis, except that it is established by modern social engineering techniques, usually by the state or the party in one-party states and dominant-party states. It is often seen in totalitarian or authoritarian countries.
