If there's no Vietnam War (meaning no US escalation of the Vietnam War in 1965, such as due to JFK living, for instance), could there be some future war that would become a Vietnam equivalent for the US? If so, where? For instance, could the US have gotten involved somewhere like Angola and/or Ethiopia in order to fight the spread of Communism there? Also, were any other locations plausible for a large-scale Vietnam-like US military intervention in this TL--albeit not necessarily under JFK's Presidency?
