Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Vietcong is a name used by the US and its allies for the National Liberation Front for South Vietnam, an army fighting to overthrow the South Vietnamese government during the Vietnam War (1959-1975). It had both guerrilla and regular army units, as well as a network of cadres who organized peasants in the territory it controlled. Many soldiers were recruited in South Vietnam, but others were attached to the People''s Army of Vietnam (PAVN), the regular North Vietnamese army. During the war, communists and anti-war spokesmen insisted the Vietcong was an insurgency indigenous to the South, while the U.S. and South Vietnamese governments disputed this and portrayed the group as a tool of Hanoi. This allowed writers to distinguish northern communists from the southern communists, or Viet Cong. However, northerners and southerners were always under the same command structure. According to Hanoi''s official history, the PLAF (Vietcong) was a branch of the PAVN.
