"1964 - Two US Navy destroyers report being attacked by North Vietnamese torpedo boats in the Gulf of Tonkin. US President Lyndon Johnson uses the attack to pass the Tonkin Gulf Resolution, which allows Johnson to take 'all measures necessary' to rapidly escalate the conflict without formally declaring war. Years later, it would be revealed that the attacks reported by the US ships never actually happened."
