| Summary/Abstract |
In a very important sense, the Vietnamese military history of the communist era began in 1941, when Ho Chi Minh prepared 'Guerrilla Tactics' (Cach Danh Du Kich).1
The publication of this essay, which was a manual on the tactics, techniques, and procedures of guerrilla warfare, preceded the founding of the first armed propaganda unit (Tuyen Truyen Doi Vo Trang) on 22 December 1944, which later became the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN, Quan Doi Nhan Dan); as well as the revolutionary writings of Truong Chinh (1946-1947) and Vo Nguyen Giap (1959). The fact that 'Tactics' was published by the Viet Minh reinforces the claim made by the PAVN that it was the first authoritative Vietnamese writing on this important subject.

| Summary/Abstract |
Past efforts by the United States to understand Chinese strategic thought in irregular warfare have relied heavily upon translation. Samuel B. Griffith, a decorated combat veteran, was particularly important in this regard, having served in China even as Mao Zedong emerged. It was the Vietnam War which focused attention on Griffith’s work, even as the same war was tapped by China in its own effort to understand the guerrilla warfare of a new era. Lessons from the Vietnamese struggle against the Americans were carefully assessed for a possible face-off, ironically, not with Washington but with Moscow.
