The Korean & Vietnam Wars (1950-1953) & (1961-1975) respectively, were the only "proxy wars" fought during the cold war. Both of those "Limited Wars" (Limited to Conventional Weapons only-No Nukes) were "Hot" battles of the Cold War.
Communist rebellions, insurrections, guerrilla activites (such as attempted by Castro's Lieutenant Che Gueverra in Central/South America), etc, never fully developed into "wars" involving showdowns such as they did in Korea & Vietnam.
