REQUEST FOR MORE FUNDING OF THE WAR

President Lyndon B. Johnson - State of The Union Address - Holden Luntz  Gallery


On January 10, 1967, during his State of the Union speech,
President
Lyndon B. Johnson asked Congress for more
money to support the
Vietnam War.

Lyndon’s War, a war he actually inherited from President
John F. Kennedy, had achieved nothing by 1967. The North
Vietnamese use of guerrilla warfare tactics resulted in
approximately 14,000 American troops killed in action by
early 1967.

Hundreds of U.S. planes had been shot down, leaving Air
Force personnel in enemy POW camps. Although the enemy
also suffered heavy casualties, they did not show any signs
of giving up.
