Operation rolling thunder
In order to fight a real fight against North Vietnam, the Americans planned a method to fight with bombs. This was called Operation Rolling Thunder. American aircraft would drop bombs from March 1965 to October 1968. It was very constant an it destroyed most of Vietnam.
While thinking that Operation Rolling Thunder would be a success, it failed. North Vietnam grouped with China and the Soviet Union to create a sophisticated air-defense to take cover. The system worked which made America lose and have Americans be shot down and most of the prisoners held in North Vietnam were American. http://www.history.com/topics/vietnam-war/operation-rolling-thunder
