Three tactical nukes wouldn't have done much to save a bankrupt colonial empire nor stop the communists. Hell, we killed something like 2 million of them. All it would have done is draw the condemnation of the world and get the Chinese more involved.
Quite likely, and it certainly would have opened the doors to others more freely using nukes in conflict - perhaps, and likely, against the U.S.
