Yes, fire ants were a problem for troops during the Vietnam War. Other dangers in the jungle areas of Vietnam included ticks, mosquitoes that carried malaria, and at least 30 different kinds of venomous snakes.
Thompsons saw very limited use in Vietnam, and were mostly carried by forces which weren't American - the US Army used the M3 'grease gun'. The Navy and many second line units did use them, though, as did non-US forces in the region. They used them with 30 round detachable box magazines.
In Vietnam the army issue knife was the M7 bayonet still in service with some countries today. The Marines carried, as they have since World War II, the Ka-Bar USMC combat knife. This knife is still carried by current serving Marines and is readily available to civillians. The Navy SEALs carried the SOG bowie knife which was developed for them at the time and in fact stands for 'Studies and Observations Group" which the SEALs were. These knives were the issue knives but individuals of course carried there preferred knives into combat also. Hope this answers your question..
President Kennedy's Flexible Response was initiated to provide the United States with various means of response to aggression, not limited to nuclear attacks. As a result, his response to Vietnam was to send additional advisors, increase our military aid to the South Vietnam government and institute the disastrous Strategic Hamlet Program.
