This time frame was the start of the Cold War and the birth of the Dominoe Theory. Truman provided financial support in the amount of about 45 million dollars. Genuine support of the Vietnam War began in the Eisenhower administration when arms, advisers and Air America was given to the French and to the South Vietnamese Government.

Why did the Vietnamese guerrillas fight the French in Indochina?

France was the only country after WW2 that refused to grant independence to its Asian colonies. Ho Chi Minh had tried to ask the U.S. to help negotiate with the French, but the U.S. refused because he had had communist contacts during WW2. That left no option but a war of independence against France, which as the only military support he could get was from his previous communist contacts Vietnam eventually became a communist nation.
