A little known factoid from the Vietnam War is that there were a very few American POWs who collaberated with the North Vietnamese. They included a Naval aviator, a Marine aviator and a handful of enlisted men. Dont know the names of the pilots off hand, but they can be found in James Webb's novel A Country Such As This.
At one time, some of these enlisted men volunteered to fight in the North Vietnamese Army, but the Communists rejected the offer. What if they had accepted? Granted, there was not enough traitors to make a sizeable force. But there would have been enough for an AA crew or a sapper squad. What would the impact of Americans fighting Americans in the Vietnam War be?
