Vietcong
The armed forces of the National Liberation
Front (NLF) were composed both by regular units of the North Vietnam army and
by irregulars. The term “Vietcong” was used as a generic term for NLF soldiers,
but in common iconography it represents the irregular guerrillas. The Vietcong
were armed with Soviet-produced weapons like the ubiquitous AK-47 Kalašnikov
assault rifle, or the semi-automatic SKS carbine. In January 1968, they took
part in the massive Tet Offensive during the night of the Vietnamese New Year.
