Abstract
- North Vietnam's General Vo Nguyen Giap's new divisions trained in China in 1950, especially the 308th division, were almost invincible and France's defeat in the south is partly due to them. The 308th Division was called the Iron Division and a French writer referred to them as the 'insect battalions'.
