"We do this in order to slow down aggression. We do this to increase the confidence of the brave people of South Vietnam who have bravely born this brutal battle for so many years with so many casualties.

We will not withdraw either openly or under the cloak of a meaningless agreement."

-- Lyndon B. Johnson
