The answer to the question above is option B: The United States sent hundreds of thousands of U. S. soldiers to fight in the war. When we say proxy war, this is the kind of war that is being initiated by a bigger power but never itself become directly involved in the war. The best example for this is the Vietnam War. The United States only sent their troops for the fight, but actually, those that are mainly involved are t he Northern Communist Vietnam and the Southern Capitalist Vietnam only. The main purpose of the United States here is to gain power in the region and territory.
