who is the real winner of 1965 war
Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 India had the upper hand over Pakistan when the ceasefire was declared.[27][28][29][30][31][32][33] Although the two countries fought to a standoff, the conflict is seen as a strategic and political defeat for Pakistan,[34][28][35][36][37][38][39] as it had neither succeeded in fomenting insurrection in Kashmir[40] nor had it been able to gain meaningful support at an international level.[35][41][42][43]
Draft lottery (1969) In 1963, a coup was organized by South Vietnamese generals which resulted in the death of Diem. President Lyndon B. Johnson increased U.S. personnel in Vietnam due to the political instability in the country. In August 1964, two U.S. warships were attacked by North Vietnamese torpedo boats. Johnson issued an attack order against North Vietnam, and Congress passed a motion which gave him more authority over military decisions. In 1965, President Johnson had sent 82,000 troops to Vietnam, and his officials wanted another 175,000. Due to the heavy demand for military personnel, the United States required more than what the regular military could provide, causing the acceleration of the draft. Between 1965 and 1972 the draft provided 2,215,000 service members to the U.S. military.[5]
