Treaty+of+Paris-Vietnam+War+ends

Treaty of Paris Paris Peace Accords treaty was formed in 1973 and is the reason the war was finally brought to a stand still, the Treaty of Paris ended direct U.S. military involvement and temporarily ended fighting between North and South Vietnam. It basically served as our escape route to getting our young soldiers out of the deadly country. The treaty stated that the US would stop all military activities against the Vietnamese by ground, air and water. All mines in the Vietnamese territories had to be removed. The US could not interfere with any affairs that South and North Vietnam were involved in. All parties were to release captured soldiers and civilians within 60 days of the signed treaty.

Soon after our departure, North Vietnam over took the south and all of our work there was quickly lost in a matter of two years.
