It was Gen. Giap. Peace accords were signed and we began pulling troops out. By 1972 we had mainly Advisors and air power left. The north broke the accords and launched the "Easter Offensive" in 1972. The South Vietnamese Forces, with American backing beat the NV, backed by the chicoms and the ussr and sent them running home.
In 1975 the north had rebuilt and tried again. By this time the US democrat congress cut off all funding to the South. The rest is history.

Yep we won, Congress lost it.
I pray - seriously - that this will not happen in Iraq, but fear that it will.
