    Back then in Vietnam, we don't fight for ideas or politics, we didn't even understand what ''Communism'' means. All we understand at the time was that the enemy had decided to invade our country and it is by sheer duty and patriotism that we took up arms and fight back.

I have never met anyone who call themselves a communist or socialist in Vietnam, but I have met a lot in the West. Americans didn't understand this mindset, we would've sided with them too if they'd helped us achieve independence. Country before ideology.

    The Vietnamese communist hero won the greatest national war in history. So far, the Vietnam War still holds the record as the war with the highest number of bombs thrown in the history of the world. The total number of bombs that US planes dropped on Vietnam was 7.85 million tons, nearly three times the total number of bombs that all countries used during World War II and the equivalent of 250 bombs. atoms that the US threw at Hiroshima. On average, every Vietnamese person at that time suffered about 250 kg of bombs dropped from American planes. That's not to mention 7.5 million tons of US ammunition used on the ground (including grenades, mines, explosives, artillery shells) and 45,260 tons (about 75 million liters) of toxic chemicals sprayed by the US. Who are the righteous people, they are farmers, workers, students, young people, women, old people .... stand up and hold guns against foreign invaders! Everlasting thanks to the previous generation!

      The US had to pull the poor and working class off the streets to get enough troops willing to go overseas to fight for a vague goal and a cause they didn't really care about in a foreign country they wouldn't have otherwise known about, under commanders who thought technology would win the day.
      The North Vietnamese were willing to endure hard-scrabble guerrilla warfare and die to get yet another foreign occupation out of their country, practice their religion and get their best chance to actually own the land that their families had farmed for generations. It's more about motivation than anything.

    Vietnam had the advantage because their area was just so different and more difficult to deal with compared to the contemporary battlefield structure of WWII. Traditional strategies and tactics that worked in WWII just could not work against an enemy who didn't follow traditional rules and lived in an environment that was so hostile and deadly to foreigners.

However,China and Soviet Union were against. As a result Indochina was slipt 2 parties , Pol Pot was ally of China, Lao and Vietnam were ally of Soviet. America worried if Soviet and China had been ally, it would have been a disaster ,so they found way to prevent operation between Soviet and China , American would allow China to import and export goods from US and allies of US.So they are successful .It was called Global Strategy, that why Republic of Vietnam collapsed (US left South Vietnam alone)

      @@bartkatastroof6150 It’s not propaganda. It’s the US’s motivation for getting involved in Vietnam. It’s the same reason we came to the defense of South Korea in the 50’s. You have to think that everyone was waiting for World War 3 to pop off at any moment. So when the war did go off, having as manny allies around your biggest enemies during the war (Russia and probably China and most likely North Korea), would be very preferable rather than having enemy allies in that area. It was purely for strategic purposes, not imperialistic ones. If south Vietnam would’ve won they most likely would’ve been treated similar to Japan and South Korea, as an important ally.

    I talked to a Vietnam vet for a school project a few years ago, and he told me all about the animals and I feel like the threats of the nature are left out when people bring up the Vietnam war. I never thought of the kind of things he told me. but he was super cool and I made sure not to ask him questions he wouldn't want to answer because I understand that going through what he did was a very touchy subject and I didn't want him to feel uncomfortable/sad about the things he said or did but I respect him and look up to him he was a very cool man

      Khroxy The US became very aware of the Vietnam land after the first few years of the war, it wasn’t that new to the Army since they fought in the Japanese controlled islands in the pacific. Which were very similar in terrain to the Jungles of Vietnam.
      I like how everyone avoids the real reason the US lost the war. Because filthy fucking communist hippies made their country lose a war. And then proceeded to spit on returning veterans. These same people, never received any punishment nor shame for betraying their country and army. Hippies, deserve the worst the world has to offer.
