Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, or MACV, was the United States' unified command structure for all its military forces in South Vietnam during the Vietnam Conflict. It was created on February 2, 1962 in response to military assistance in South Vietnam, due to the threat of an attack from North Vietnam. After the 1973 Paris peace Accords treaty, the US was mandated to pull out all forces from Vietnam. Hence, the MACV was disbanned on March 29th, 1973. They fought against the rising fear of the Viet Cong insurgency and against invasion attempts from North Vietnam.
