what latin american country was actively involved in the vietnam war?

Answer 1

Interesting but I dont know...Mexico for sure was not.

BTW...I am sorry about comments like those of Orchiq..blue orquid or whatever she is so ignorant

But to be honest ur question has made me learn something I didnt even imagined

Answer 2

An FYI for wild_orchid_1988:
Latin America is the region of the Americas where Romance languages — those derived from Latin — are officially or primarily spoken. Sometimes, particularly in the United States and Canada, the term "Latin America" is used to refer to all of the Americas south of the U.S., including countries such as Belize, Guyana, Jamaica, Barbados and Suriname where non-Romance languages prevail.

Now, to answer the question:
I can't find any......the listed participants are: US, Australia, South Vietnam, Philippines, New Zealand, South Korea, and Thailand.

Unless somebody considers the Philippines as a Latin American country, I don't know what the answer would be.

Answer 3

Belligerents Anti-Communist forces: South Vietnam u . s . a . South Korea Australia Philippines New Zealand Khmer Republic Thailand Kingdom of Laos Communist forces: North Vietnam Viet Cong Khmer Rouge Pathet Lao human beings's Republic of China Soviet Union North Korea

Answer 4

I know that several provided non-military support. That list reads:

Argentina

Argentina donated 5,000 tons of wheat flour and 20,000 doses of cholera vaccine.

Brazil

Brazil provided 5,000 sacks of coffee and a substantial quantity of medical supplies.

Costa Rica

This country contributed an ambulance for use by the Vietnamese Ministry of Health.

Ecuador

A gift of medical supplies was sent to Vietnam.

Guatemala

Approximately 15,000 doses of typhoid-paratyphoid serum were donated.

Honduras

Honduras contributed medicines and 3,100 pounds of new clothes for Vietnamese refugees. This represented contributions from the people of Honduras to the Red Cross during a campaign in October 1966. It was not until February 1967 that a Honduran Air Force plane completed the mercy flight in what was the first trans-Pacific flight for a Honduran Air Force crew.

Uruguay

A contribution of $21,500 for relief supplies and medicines was donated.

Venezuela

Two civilian doctors were sent to Vietnam, and 500 tons of rice were provided by Venezuela.

Other than that you've got me stumped.

Answer 5

Wow- someone is hung up on technicalities today. I'm pretty sure everyone gets the questions meaning. If we only answered questions that were properly phrased there would only be about 20 legit questions a day. The rest of the time would be spent chastising and correcting each other. What fun is that?

Sorry I can't answer the question- just needed to put my fitty cents in.

Answer 6

Mexico donated huge quantities of people whom after the war received the American Citizenship

Answer 7

Wrong war, maybe?

Colombia was actively involved in the Korean war, sending a regiment of infantry and warships.

Answer 8

There is no "Latin American Country", the term "Latin American" is used to describe people of Latin descent that live in America. An American "country" is America. There are places such as Guam, but those are not classified as American Countries. You'll need to rephrase your question with proper text meaning.

Answer 9

I'm guessing Colombia.
