The '''Vietcong''', or '''National Liberation Front''', was a Communist army in South Vietnam. They fought the government of [[South Vietnam]] and the US Army during the [[Vietnam War]] (1959-1975). The Vietcong is best known for the Tet offensive of 1968, in which they killed thousands of people. During the war, Communist propaganda insisted the Vietcong was an insurgency indigenous to the South. Memoirs written after the war by Tran Van Tra and others reveal that this was a hoax. The military commanders were North Vietnamese army officers who reported only to Hanoi.
