ARVNs

ARVNs is a term that can refer to several different things, depending on the context. Most commonly, it is an abbreviation for the Army of the Republic of Vietnam, also known as the South Vietnamese Army. This military force was the ground army of South Vietnam, established shortly after the partition of Vietnam in 1954. The ARVN fought against the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese Army during the Vietnam War. Their effectiveness was a subject of much debate and analysis throughout the conflict and in its aftermath. The ARVN was ultimately disbanded following the Fall of Saigon in 1975.

In other contexts, ARVN might refer to specific units, operations, or historical periods related to the South Vietnamese military. Without further context, it is difficult to provide more specific information. The legacy and study of the ARVN continue to be important for understanding the history of the Vietnam War and Southeast Asian military history.
