It depends upon the context, and the nature of the slang. Simple exclamations of disbelief such as "Fair dinkum!" are fine in normal social circumstances, but the hardened Australian bushman is known for his colourful slang, which would not be acceptable in the same circumstances.

What does the slang mean used during the Vietnam war?

"Slang" means informal, socially un-acceptable, vulgar, or playful. During WWII, Americans were often called "Yanks", short for "Yankees." In South Vietnam, nearly all US servicemen were called "GI." Both Yank and GI are slang words. During the US Civil War, Confederate soldiers were called "Rebs" short for Rebel, which in itself is short for "Rebellion" (because that's what the Confederates were doing...rebelling against the United States of America). The word Reb is a slang word. Whether or not the words "socially un-acceptable" or "vulgar", or "playful" depends entirely on whose offended by the word.
