Napalm was used as a tactical weapon, often a jet would make a pass with regular HE (in today's jargon: steel bombs or iron bombs; but in the war GI's called the bombs, "HE" for High Explosive), then a pass with naplam, then a pass with rockets and or cannon fire (probably 20mm). River Monitors of the US Navy's Riverine Forces also used flame throwing type weapons as they traversed up and down the rivers. This, in conjunction with their 40mm cannon in the Monitor's forward turret.

What were the firebombs called that were used to clear the jungle in Vietnam?

Regular High Explosive aerial bombs cleared jungle better than anything else, of course they usually left a good sized bomb crater there too. But, for 40 yards surrounding that crater, it would be open ground (all dirt)...no vegetation. Napalm was used as a tactical weapon when dropped from US jet aircraft, in conjunction with rockets and cannon fire. US Navy River Monitors also used flame throwing devices, again, in conjunction with the Monitor's forword turret, which housed a 40mm cannon.
