1. I think is "D"
Where did Indo- China war take place.
The first Indochinese war began in 1945 when Ho Chi Minh, leader of the communist front for Vietnam, Signed a Declaration of Independence stating that Vietname would be free of French and American influence and that any previous treatys signed on behalf of the Vietnamese by the French were absolved and all ties broken with France culturally and economically.

2. I think is "A"
Although the U.S. committed enormous resources and defeated the communists in tactical engagements time and again, there was a lack of will to do the things that have to be done to win a war: Go on the offensive, advance into enemy territory, seize the military initiative, and so forth. In Korea, the U.S. advanced all the way through North Korea to China at one point, although it was later forced back. The communists worried that the U.S. might do this again, so they had an incentive to keep the truce. In Vietnam, treaties were signed, but the fighting went on. Eventually, U.S. public opinion tired of an endless, defensive war. Congress ordered an end to direct U.S. military involvement in August 1973. US financial aid to South Vietnam was cut off in August 1974 and Saigon fell to the communist North in April 1975.

3. I think "A"
The Vietnam War was responsible for a heavy strain on the financial resources of the US economy. Due to the war exigency, there was a negative imbalance in the industrial sector. Factories which were manufacturing consumer goods had to shift their onus towards catering to the demands of the military. A war never benefits anyone; this statement proved right to America too.

4. I think is "B"
Among the reasons/causes of the Vietnam War:
As for why the US got involved, Americans feared the "domino theory" of expanding communist empires. The Truman doctrine stated that America would assist governments resisting communism.
