    Democrat POTUS Truman created the Military Assistance Advisory Group
    (MAAG) Indochina in September 1950 under General Erskine in Saigon. It
    was well under 1,000 men, and was devoted to logistics and training, and remained so through 1960. Ike kept it devoted to logistics and under
    700 men. They were not doing field operations. This was not any cause
    for getting involved in combat in Asia.
