The USSR had been training North Vietnamese jet fighter pilots since the late 1950's. North Vietnamese pilot trainees had spent about 2 years in the Soviet Union (Russia) learning how to fly MIGs. During the mid 1960's North Viet pilots began training in Red China. They preferred that, as Red China was closer, just across the border. The NVAF never exceeded about 200 MiG jet fighters at any one given time. The Soviets trained the North Viet MiG-17 and MiG-21 pilots, and supplied the jets. The Red Chinese trained the North Viet MiG-19 pilots, and supplied those jets (J6 versions). Although the NVAF preferred to train in Communist China, they didn't prefer the MiG19 jet; it had two engines and complicated maintenance and flying. North Vietnamese Army (NVA) senior officers were trained in Russia (USSR) and Red China, returned home to North Vietnam and trained their countrymen. Soviet technicians trained SAM (Surface to Air Missiles) crewmen in North Vietnam.
Vietnamization
Believe it or not, the first troops into Vietnam were not conventional troops. They were actually the Green Berets, or the 10th Special Operations Forces. They were there to train the South Vietnamese to fight the Guerrilla Vietcong in South Vietnam. They first went in country in the 1950's.

The plan to facilitate the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam by training Vietnamese forces was known as "Vietnamization." Initiated during the Nixon administration, Vietnamization aimed to empower South Vietnamese troops to take over combat operations, allowing for a gradual reduction of American military presence in the country. This strategy was intended to help ensure the stability of South Vietnam as U.S. forces withdrew.
As far as the United Nations forces were concerned, some countries sent troops to fight, others sent medical teams or logistics teams to supply the troops. On the other side, China sent weapons, supplies and an army, Soviet Russia sent weapons and pilots to train and fight.

Soldiers from North Vietnam, South Vietnam, Korea, Australia, and the United States were all effectively trained and prepared for battle in the Vietnam Conflict.

A range of different groups including the South Vietnamese army. One of the more famous ethnic groups were the Montagnard people who lived in the highlands/mountains.
It would be illegal for you to get and train a private army.
the tension between north and south came to a disagreement-north thought they deserved all of Vietnam and war was about to brake out south Vietnam asked America to help Lyndon b Johnson and Kennedy sent trainer to train the armies of the south soon that was not enough to help the southern Vietnamese people so troops were sent Vietnam. If one searches The Vietnam War and finds many start and end dates the reason for that is very simple. There was never an official start date of the war in Vietnam because war was never officially declared. America became very involved with the war in 1960. you check it out on CNN time line its pretty cool and simple find
Build a barracks and then train troops. Simple. Do the quests, they explain the game.
To prevent Communist North Vietnam from taking over the free Republic of South Vietnam. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ First yes there were two governments in Vietnam at the time. North Vietnam was a communist state and South Vietnam was democratic. Our involvement started when the french left Vietnam in the late 1950's. The south vietnamese asked the American government for help to train their soldiers to defend against the vietcong invasion. We sent over advisors and the north vietnamese started attacking the advisors so we sent troops over to help protect the advisors. It wasnt until the mid 1960's that we reached a full involvement in southeast asia. That point the idea was to patrol the jungles and so forth to continue helping to protect the south vietnamese and advisors we had training the ARVN (army of the republic of vietnam). Also another reason for our increased involvement was something called the Gulf of Tonkin resolution. The north vietnamese sank one of our smaller ships (a frigate i believe) so we increased troop strengh.
The government of South Vietnam requested military advisors from the United States to help train the South Vietnamese army. Ho Chi Minh was a communist and during the Cold War of the 1950s and 60s, the aim of the US government was containment of communist power and not to let it spread. The Eisenhower administration provided South Vietnam with money and military advisors (not officially called troops) to help stop the threat of a North Vietnamese takeover. The United States also was pledged by treaty (SEATO) to aid the member nations in southeast Asia, if they were attacked by a foreign (communist) power.
