If they run they are VC, if they don't run they are well disciplined VC. You would do well to remember that poor treatment of the opposing force went both ways

  > And that the US were the invading force. No, the North Vietnamese were the invading force. They invaded South Vietnam, and after the Paris Peace Accords they invaded it again and conquered it.

    You say conquered they say unified. It was only split into North and South as a result of the Independence movement (against colonial French occupation). And actually, an associated declaration stated that after the troop withdrawals (signifying the actual demarcation of North and South) an election would be held for the reunification of the country. This provision was subsequently never agreed to by the South Vietnamese or the United States. So the North Vietnamese invaded their own country to wrest control from a puppet US supported government, after they had reneged on a democratic option for reunification.
