do you know how many vietnamese soldiers have died on Laos soil during the secret war of Laos?

I read NVC sent many officers to lead the Pathet Lao at the Plain of Jar. Many of the NVC officers didn't think highly of the Pathet Lao soldiers.

I got to handle to the NVC with the help of USSR they play the game real good. They kept Laos neutral and divided.

Yes, Brother. you absolutely right about what you said, Upper level Vietminh didn't think highly of the Pathetlao soldiers. Why? because Vietminh viewed lao operationally as an extension of their battlefield against the French in Tonkin, Annam, and Cochinchina. A brief review of the engagements of the Indochina war that affected lao directly is necessary here. The Party explained the position fully to cadres by mean of a circular. A copyof this document, mark'' TOP SECRET'' and dated November 1,1951, was capture by French. It' state: the creation of a separate party of each of the three states does not prejudice the revolutionary movement in Indochina... the vietnamese party reserves the right to supervise the activities of it brotherparty in Cambodia, and Laos.the central executive commitee of the Vietnamese worker' party has designated a Cambodian and Laotian bureau charged with assisting the revolutionary movements in these Countries. it' organizes periodic assemblies of the three parties in order to dicuss questions of comon interest;it works toward the creation of a Vietnamese-Khmer-Laotian United front.Militarily, Vietnam,Cambodia, and Laos constitute a combatzone; Vietnam has substantially assisted Cambodia and Laos Militarily as well as from all other points of view.. One of the eariest reliable accounts of North Vietnamese domination of the Pathetlao is attributed to the ( Major Kavinh-Koenakorn) a onetime secretary to pathet lao political delegation to the Royal government, who defected to Vientian in September 15,1955. He reported that the Vietnamese had absolute control of pathet lao organization at all levels, and that pathet lao officials could decide nothing but has to obey ''Can bo orders. He described how, after 1954, families in pathet lao-controlled areas were deliberately split up and women and chidren remove across the border by the North Vietnamese to serve as hostages and as potential recruits.'' Souphanouvong enrolled two of his sons in Schools in North Vietnam''. Many of those sent to North Vietnam were later returned to SamNeua, where they were constituted something of a fifth column. Oh, man it' kindda late now i gotta go Bro..Ok. bye now.....
