Answer:

A need to keep the Soviet Union out of Asia .

Step-by-step explanation:

The rationale for US military involvement in both Korea and Vietnam was practically the same: to stop communist expansion in Asia and avoid the fall of friendly countries into the hands of communist movements, an outcome that would have supposed an advantage for the Soviet Union in the geopolitical chess game of the Cold War bipolar order.
