110. JFK signed orders getting US out of Vietnam... NSAM 263.
National security Action Memorandum 263

LBJ countermanded those orders, committing the US to helping Vietnam with NSAM 273.

National Security Action Memorandum 273

Of course, this information was left out of "The Pentagon Papers." Perhaps Daniel Ellsberg, and hence The New York Times, never saw them.
