They may not have bombed any US Soldiers, but the US Navy sure took some hits from the NVAF. In 1968, a possible (this episode is clouded in mystery) NVAF helicopter attacked and sank A US Navy Swift Boat (PCF 19); US jets responded and accidently fired missiles into the Australian warship HOBART and heavy US cruiser USS Boston. No US Sailors were killed aboard the heavy cruiser, but two Australian Sailors were killed aboard their warship. All the US Sailors aboard the Swift Boat died.
In 1972 two NVAF MiG-17 jets, which had been converted to the fighter bomber role (hard points added to carry bombs) bombed the US destroyer USS Higbee and the light cruiser USS Oklahoma City. Light casualties only, no fatalities, but the 5" after mount of the destroyer was totalled out.
