Ships require docks to offload. You can't just throw s bunch of soldiers on a Carnival Cruise Lines ship and sail up and disembark. That's why they have hovercraft and landing craft.

That's one ship, for a force that wasn't trying to take and hold an entire country, no matter what size.

What you seem to forget is that the US has always been the good guy, even when mistakes were made with policy and reasoning, we never fought an innocent tyrant.

Do you actually fact check, or just make it up as you go along? There were no B-52 missions from Taiwan during Vietnam. They flew from Thailand and Guam. They flew some tankers from Taiwan but that was it.
