Best Answer

The Viet Minh were a North Vietnamese communist gurrilla force originally made to secure independance from French rule and later fought against the USA in the Vietnam War. They are often wrongly called the Viet Cong. This is incorrect as the Viet Cong was the name given to the South Vietnamese communist force, and were not a part of the Northern forces.
