Question

exit ticket - february 12 (vietnam cpalms)
which policy is illustrated by the changes in troop levels displayed on the graph below between 1968 and 1972?
number of troops in vietnam (1960-1973)

escalation
intervention
domino theory
vietnamization

Explanation:

Between 1968-1972, the graph shows U.S. troop levels decreasing while South Vietnamese troop levels rise. This matches the policy of Vietnamization, where the U.S. transferred combat responsibility to South Vietnamese forces and withdrew its own troops. Escalation would mean increasing U.S. troops, intervention refers to initial entry, and the Domino Theory was a justification for involvement, not a troop adjustment policy.

Answer:

Vietnamization
