American military women were auxiliaries in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. They were not authorized to be combatants and were part of the WACs, WAVEs, and WAFs. Equal employment came after the Viet War when the WACs/WAVEs/etc. were disbanded and the all volunteer military came into being. American military females have fought in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, and other US military operations. But WWI, WWII, Korea and the Vietnam Wars were strictly fought by men.
US military women were auxiliaries; WACs & WAVEs from WWII through the Vietnam War. Their mission was to support the American fighting man, and to relieve him of certain supportive functions so that he could fight the war. This was accomplished.
WACs & WAVEs did the same thing they did in WWII; supported the US fighting men. Primary functions were administrative and medical (nurses).
The names of the 58,000 American men and women who died in the Vietnam War.

Women were volunteers.
No women didn't serve in the military on either side. There were women who were nurses and one or two disguised themselves as men and fought.

As in Korea and WWII, women in Vietnam were volunteers in both the military and civilian employment, with the majority of their effort addressed to the medical field.
Women serve with honor and distinction in the military forces of a great number of nations.

The Vietnam War was fought with a traditional American military; as with WW2 and the Korean War before it, with women serving as nurses. Those past wars were fought with women in the WAC's, WAVEs, WAFs, and WMs (Womens Army Corps, Women Allowed in the Navy for Voluntary Emergency Service, Women in the Air Force, and Women Marines). In 1975, to make room for the ALL VOLUNTEER military, those women "corps" were DISBANDED.
I don't believe anyone, male or female, should be required to serve a military organisation.
