Answer 1

The correct answer should be
president Truman sent American troops to Korea without asking for a declaration of war

He sent air and naval forces to support he United Nations in Korea. He never asked for a declaration but he got it anyway because the congress was on his side and supported his decisions. It wasn't considered to be a regular United States war, but rather a joint intervention of the United Nations.
