Radar - It was either the President of Indonesia or Singapore who said that American involvement in Vietnam ended up being a victory, not because it secured Vietnam, but because it halted the spread of Asian communism long enough for the rest of SE Asia to secure itself (and later to enjoy the economic boom). Take that for what its worth.
