Dylan was very much a war protester before his motocycle accident in the summer of 1966. That event and his long recuperation changed a lot of things about Dylan.

If Bob was protesting the war its not something that I have ever read in the many books about him.
Some of his early songs could be viewed as against the Viet Nam war but none are specifically about the war-—to my knowledge.
Masters of War perhaps, but I think that is about war in general......

Check out this article—you may or may not agree with it.

Heres another interetesting look at Dylan and Viet Nam—
worth a look.
