The Ho Chi Minh Trail.
US military could never stop the supply line known as the Ho Chi Minh Trail; a series of interconnected roads and trails leading into South Vietnam.
The 17th parallel was established on 21 July 1954 as a provisional demarcation line.
The 17th Parallel Line created the DMZ or Demilitarized Zone between North and South.
During the Vietnam War, the 17th parallel was the dividing line that separated one nation from another (North & South Vietnam); it hasn't existed since 1975.
America did not lose the Vietnam police action. In 1975 the South Vietnamese lost their civil war with North Vietnam two years after the American withdrawal. The North violated their Peace Treaty an invaded South Vietnam and were able to defeat the South Vietnamese militarily.

17th parrelle
North Vietnam & Red China BORDER each other. Recieving new jets (MiG-17's or MiG-19's) is just a matter of driving the supply truck across the imaginary line.
it's the 17th parallel
The 17th parallel was established on 21 July 1954 as a provisional demarcation line.
The 17th Parallel Line created the DMZ or Demilitarized Zone between North and South.
A standard supply function: stand in line, and the man is issued a weapon, signing for it of course.;
The dividing line of latitude between North and South Vietnam is the 17th parallel. Established as part of the Geneva Accords in 1954, this line marked the temporary division of Vietnam into two separate states: the communist North, led by Ho Chi Minh, and the anti-communist South, backed by the United States. The division was intended to be temporary, but it solidified into a long-lasting geopolitical conflict, culminating in the Vietnam War. In 1976, Vietnam was reunified under communist control following the war's end.
i think it is called the macnamara line but im not completely sure
The 1973 Paris Accord required all external troops to be withdrawn and all external supply of war materials to cease. The Free World side honoured this. North Vietnam and its backers USSR and China did not. The Ho Chi Minh Trail was expanded to a four lane highway with a petroleum pipeline beside it to pour supply into South Vietnam.In 1975 the North Vietnam regular army attacked across the border from Laos with conventional arms including tanks and artillery, supported by this supply line. The South Vietnam forces, without resupply, had to conserve ammunition, and could put up little credible resistance to this overwhelming force. The South Vietnamese were decisively defeated in the field and capitulated to avoid unneccessary bloodshed.Acting President of South Vietnam Duong Van Minh surrendered on 30 April 1975.
Australia sent their 1st Armored Regiment of Centurion tanks, along with infantrymen and artillery to Vietnam. The Australian Navy sent four destroyers to work the gun-line off the coast of North & South Vietnam.
I have never seen a faucet that has a nut on the line coming out of it. Usually it is a male connection and the nut is on the supply line between the faucet and the house supply. Anyway, if the line coming out of the faucet is messed up, you could probably cut it and use a compression fitting to go between the faucet and the supply line to the house line.
