#SouthVietnam
In the ill-advised Battle of the #ParacelIslands, on #ThisDayInHIstory in 1974, the navy of #SouthVietnam attacked Chinese positions in the previously-shared #SouthChinaSea chain. They badly lost and #China consolidated control over all of them, creating an unresolved dispute.

Often colloquially called the #VietCong, the National Liberation Front of #SouthVietnam was founded on #ThisDayInHistory in 1960. Resistance to the illegal partition of #Vietnam had already begun and would continue, at great cost, until the US puppet state was toppled in 1975.

Remember the picture from Vietnam? Where the southvietnam police chief shot a prisoner in the head? This is exactly the same.

mmm... the Republicans abandoned #SouthVietnam, they abandoned the #Kurds, they abandoned #Afghanistan and now they abandon #Ukraine ... good at starting wars less good as an ally.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1969, journalist #SeymourHersh broke the story of the #MyLaiMassacre in the #VietnamWar. He interviewed dozens, including the perpetrators, showing that US soldiers had wilfully slaughtered 504 children, women, & old men in #SơnMỹ village, #SouthVietnam.

Damn. #TIL that the #UnitedStates forced #Vietnam to repay money taken out by the #SouthVietnam government during the War as a condition for normalizing relations in the 90s.

In a world still full of wars, we commemorate the 50th anniversary of a sad day in history. For all those who still call it Saigon, and who remember all we have lost . . .

#OTD #April30, 1975 For some, the #VietnamWar had been their entire lifetime. For far too many, the war was the end of their life. #NorthVietnam troops overran #Saigon on April 30, forcing #SouthVietnam to surrender and bring about an end to the war. woodstockwhisperer.info/2016/04/30/s...

The #BattleOfẤpBắc was fought & won by #VietCong (#NLFSV) on #ThisDayInHistory in 1963. A small (350 guerrillas) but well-prepared force blocked an attack by 1400 heavily-armed #SouthVietnam troops & US "advisers". The VC took just 56 casualties, vs 202 and 5 helicopters lost.

#SouthVietnam: after fighting #Japan for five years, the recreation of the #French protectorate was certainly not part of the plans of the country's #communist forces, so a north-south divide quickly formed.
