Which of the following best describes a tactic used by the viet cong during the vietnam war?
a. attacking us troops and then hiding in the jungle
b. destroying large areas of vietnamese jungle
c. relentlessly bombing us positions
d. aggressively using superior firepower

Answer A all the way.

With inferior resources and firepower, the Viet Cong used their strengths which was to literally appear out of nowhere, and then disappear again. This was a very difficult war for a US soldier to fight, in jungle conditions that they were not used to.

On the other hand, the Viet Cong were accustomed to the heat and conditions, and were happy to wait in positions heavily camouflaged until their enemy appeared. After a flash attack, they would then retreat and repeat.

Flushing the enemy out via napalm was their main way of retaliating. Google 'Agent Orange' for more details.

Worth noting also that the Viet Cong wanted to fight more. They were willing to die to repel an enemy in their country, being invaded. On the US side, many soldiers even wondered why they were there..
