Cite on other nations troops in Vietnam

The Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam or the “RVN”), the United States, South Korea, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, and the Philippines. Participation by the South Korean military was financed by the United States, but Australia and New Zealand fully funded their own involvement
