One cannot speak for EVERYONE! The US government wanted to end the war; but during the cold war...did that mean to surrender to communism? Or fight communism until victory? Or fight communism to a draw? The Korean War was fought to a draw...that war was officially ended by an armistice (a truce); the same type of ending that ended the war to end all wars-WWI.

Viet Congs: North communist Vietnamese supporters of the communist Front in North Vietnam during the Vietnam War (known in Vietnam as the American War).

What is the beginning dates and ending dates of the Vietnam war?

Various reasons. If you go by American involvement in Vietnam, the dates will be different than the entire war itself. There was also a matter of secrecy as to just how long the US had been involved in Vietnam. For example, the first Special Forces soldier to die in Vietnam (Captain Harry Cramer, 1SFG) was killed in October of 1957, and his name was left off of the Vietnam Wall when it was unveiled in 1982, because the US government did not want to make it publicly known just how early on they had been involved in Vietnam.
