Reelected to a second term in 1942, he resigned early in 1944 to serve with the U.S. Army in Europe until late in 1945. Lodge served again in the Senate from 1947 to 1953; he was defeated for reelection by John F. Kennedy. In 1950 Lodge was a member of the U.S. delegation to the United Nations. He was U.S. representative to the UN during the administration of President Dwight D. Eisenhower from 1953 to 1960. He was nominated by the Republican national convention of 1960 to run for the vice-presidency with the presidential candidate Richard M. Nixon. Lodge served as ambassador to South Vietnam from 1963 to 1964 and from 1965 to 1967. Subsequently, he served as ambassador-at-large and as ambassador to West Germany (now part of the united Federal Republic of Germany). In 1969 Lodge represented the U.S. at the Paris peace conference on Vietnam, and from 1970 to 1977 he was the special U.S. envoy to visit the Vatican.
