Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question implies that the war was not won and therefore E is not the correct answer. The Vietnam War was a controversial and divisive conflict, and many Americans were relieved that soldiers had been removed from a situation that seemed unwinnable. Protests over the Vietnam War had been going on for years, so B is also an incorrect answer. There were some pro-war Americans who protested the removal of troops, but this was not the dominant reaction, so C is not the best choice. Finally, South Vietnam was not stable or defensible without American support, so D is not the correct answer.
