I don't know about all that history stuff, but WD40 is still the choice of discriminating racers and mechanics for cologne and aftershave. Women love its manly aura!Sent from my Galaxy

Maybe the Atlas program?  Dunno how right or wrong that is, but I’ve never heard the Vietnam part.  On Friday, January 27, 2023, TeriAnn J. Wakeman <tjwakeman at gmail.com> wrote:

        Well
            …  The French left in ’54, didn’t they? When did we show up
            – was it ’62?
      
    
    As I remember Ike sent advisors to Vietnam in 1955. Just looked
      it up.

                    1950, President Harry Truman sent a
                        Military Assistance Advisory Group (MAAG) to
                        Vietnam to assist the French in the First
                        Indochina war.
