For the years leading up to 1965, the BUFF was nuclear-only, but it was all about to change. The first conventional campaign the B-52 was involved in was over Vietnam in 1965. Starting in 1962, the US began to provide air support for South Vietnamese troops who were fighting Viet Cong forces. President Lyndon Johnson authorized increased strikes against Viet Cong in 1964 after attacks on US Navy ships in the Gulf of Tonkin. These strikes aimed to disrupt the logistical supply lines along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, a connected group of transportation corridors between North and South Vietnam, via Cambodia and Laos.
A Viet Cong strike on a US base near Pleiku in early 1965 in part led to the commencement of Operation Rolling Thunder on 2 March 1965. Rolling Thunder was a heavy bombing campaign against Viet Cong targets to pressure the North Vietnamese government to cease fire. Military and industrial targets throughout Vietnam (except Haiphong and Hanoi—to prevent provoking their allies, the Chinese and Soviets) were on the bombing list. Heavy bombing continued until the operation was stopped on the last day of October, 1968 to begin negotiations with the communist North Vietnamese.
