“I thought about it a lot of times, to defend our land and the people. As a young man I thought that if I joined the marine corps my people would have the chance to enjoy the freedom” (Nez and Avila, 15). The Navajo Code Talkers, a branch of the Marines that created a coded communication spoken in their native tongue of Diné, were a major key in the American strategy during World War II in the Pacific. However, the Navajo men who served as the Code Talkers had to overcome their sheltered, racially stunted early life, survive the harsh conditions of the Pacific theater warfront, and then to keep all of their contributions to the war a secret until the government released classified documents decades later.

In A Viet Cong Memoir, we receive excellent first hands accounts of events that unfolded in Vietnam during the Vietnam War from the author of this autobiography: Truong Nhu Tang. Truong was Vietnamese at heart, growing up in Saigon, but he studied in Paris for a time where he met and learned from the future leader Ho Chi Minh. Truong was able to learn from Ho Chi Minh’s revolutionary ideas and gain a great political perspective of the conflicts arising in Vietnam during the war. His autobiography shows the readers the perspective of the average Vietnamese citizen (especially those involved with the NLF) and the attitudes towards war with the United States. In the book, Truong exclaims that although many people may say the Americans never lost on the battlefield in Vietnam — it is irrelevant.

More indirect resistance on behalf of the soldiers was seen through search and evade missions as US troops still followed orders to search for the Vietcong but when they found them instead of engaging in warfare tactics they would give them an informal greeting and not notify their commanding offices (Handout: Glossary for the American War). This gave the Vietcong an advantage during negotiations because it became apparent that the troops were no longer obeying the combat orders given to them by their superiors. The atrocities experienced by our soldiers allowed them to finally see the Vietnamese as humans and not the enemies the U.S. portrayed them as. Additionally in response to the resistance movement within Vietnam a more passive strategy

Ultimately, the Vietnamese did not want to change their way of government in any way, which started the Vietnam war. Walter Cronkite, a T.V. star in the twentieth century, stated in his broadcast “We are Mined in Stalemate” the Vietnamese are just loyal people protecting their freedoms, the U.S. are losing men and money for no reason, and the war is nowhere near an end.

In the past, Northern Vietnam had been a part of China, which defines the close relationship that these people had with a larger and more powerful empire in this region of the world. In the late 19th century and early 20th century, the role of China’s own nationalist movements had an impact on Vietnam’s own struggles in French-Indochina.
