The Vietnam War sounds like it should've been called a civil war, but when you look up the term "civil war" in the dictionary you will find that a "civil war" is a war fought AGAINST ITSELF. The Vietnam War was not fought against itself; it was fought between two separate nations...from day one (1954). A North and a South Vietnam...those are two different countries. The Northern Army was called the NVA (North Vietnamese Army); their southern allies were called the VC (Viet Cong). The Southern Army, the good guys, the ones the US was helping, was called the ARVN (Army Republic of South Vietnam). When fighting them, over the radio, we would say, "November-Victor-Alpha" or "Victor Charlie." This would tell our higher headquarters what kind of support we would need to destroy them; artillery, jets, attack helos, etc.
