Vietnam Lessons Learned No. 76: Vietnamization

Abstract

One of the U.S. basic policies in the Republic of Vietnam (RVN) - one which the Government of the Republic of Vietnam (GVN) shares with the U.S - has come to be known as 'Vietnamization'. This policy includes all the factors - political, military, economic, social, and psychological - which would make it possible for the GVN to assume responsibility for the defense and security of the country, maintain a stable government, and develop a viable economy. An important and high priority aspect of this process is the transference of more tactical responsibility to the RVN Armed Forces (RVNAF) as rapidly as they are able to assume it. It is this aspect of Vietnamization that is discussed.
