Vietnam war
The Vietnam War, also known
as the Second Indochina War, the Vietnam Conflict or the American
War [12],
was a Cold War
military
conflict that occurred in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from September 26, 1959[1]
to April 30, 1975. This war followed the First Indochina War and was fought between the communist North
Vietnam, supported by its communist allies, and the government of South
Vietnam, supported by the United
States and other anti-communist nations.[13]
The Viet Cong,
a lightly armed South Vietnamese communist-controlled
common
front, largely fought a guerrilla
war against anti-communist forces in the region. The North Vietnamese Army engaged in a more conventional war, at times committing large
units into battle. U.S. and South Vietnamese forces relied on air
superiority and overwhelming firepower to conduct search and destroy operations, involving ground forces, artillery and
airstrikes.
