Did the Vietnamese attack the Gulf of Tonkin during Vietnam war?
Not really. The Gulf of Tonkin is a body of water off the Vietnamese coast. American naval forces operating in the Gulf in 1964 claimed to have come under attack from communist Vietnamese patrol craft, although the truth of what happened remains in much dispute. At the time, the US used the incident as justification to increase its involvement against communist forces in Vietnam, which eventually turned into a huge deployment of US military forces.

What was the overall significance of the naval battle between United States and north vietnamese forces in the tonkin gulf?
There is controversy over whether there ever *was* a battle, or even a skirmish, in the Tonkin Gulf. However, at the time, the "incident" led to the Congress authorizing the President to increase U.S. involvement in Vietnam. This is generally regarded as the point when U.S. policy began to shift from providing advisers to significant active participation in the conflict between North and South Vietnam.
