The Việt Cộng also known as the National Liberation Front, was a mass political organization in South Vietnam and Cambodia with its own army – the People’s Liberation Armed Forces of South Vietnam (PLAF) – that fought against the United States and South Vietnamese governments during the Vietnam War, eventually emerging on the winning side. It had both guerrilla and regular army units, as well as a network of cadres who organized peasants in the territory it controlled. Many soldiers were recruited in South Vietnam, but others were attached to the People’s Army of Vietnam (PAVN), the regular North Vietnamese army.

This is a wartime issued North Vietnamese Army belt and buckle set. The canvas belt measures 33″ with aluminum grommets and shows some minor staining and wear. The brass buckle is appropriately tarnished and has the Communist five pointed star stamped to the center. Overall condition in very good. Overall an exceptionally rare North Vietnamese Army Viet Cong belt that was brought home by a USGI.
