First battalion was always rifle companies A, B and C, and "Heavy Weapons" company D. Second battalion was always rifle companies E, F and G plus weapons company H. Third battalion was always rifle companies I, K and L and weapons company M. "J" was not used because it sounded too much like "K".
The Vietnam War was the second "hot" battle of the cold war. The Korean War was the first "hot" battle of the cold war. The US fought to prevent the communist nation of North Vietnam from conquering the free Republic of South Vietnam. The communists won this second round on 30 April 1975, when communist tanks crashed through the South Vietnamese Capital's front gates, and parked their tanks on the capital's front lawn. They had won, the war was over.
