Answer:

Vietnam

Step-by-step explanation:

The intention was to prevent the North Vietnamese from invading and occupying South Vietnam. We understood early on that the only way to do this was to send American soldiers inside the nation. The idea was to provide South Vietnamese soldiers with the necessary skills so they could do this task on their own. It was never realized. It took us a long time to realize that one of the major issues was how unpopular the South Vietnamese government was with its own citizens. Information was being passed to the North by a large number of Viet Cong supporters in South Vietnam. Before we began our operations, almost all American operations were known. It was not something that America did or did not do that made the war impossible to win. The majority of South Vietnamese people were not willing to support their own government or America in the way that would have led to a victory.

Thanks.
