President Richard Nixon though was elected promising the end of the Vietnam War,but he authorized long-range Boeing B-52 Stratofortress bombs to carpet bomb on Cambodia that aggravated the situation more. The bombing covered much larger regions of Cambodia than previous air attacks and it turned the war from the Vietnam civil War to the American –Vietnam War.

The correct answer is - 500,000.

By the year 1969, the United States had a military presence in Vietnam by a total of 543,400 soldiers. Over 33,000 American soldiers were killed already in 1969, which was more than the Korean war for example, and the war in Vietnam had only just began. Even though the United States had such a big number of soldiers in Vietnam, the war ended with their defeat, and it was a huge humiliation, and still is, for the United States that they lost a war by Vietnam.
