The Johnson administration inherited a substantial American commitment to maintain South Vietnam, which had been established by the previous Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations. The Johnson administration did not immediately send combat troops to South Vietnam, but instead continued to increase the number of military advisers. It was not until later in the administration that American combat troops were sent in large numbers. The Johnson administration did not advocate for the restoration of French control in Vietnam.
