Can anyone recommend novels and/or stories focusing on the Vietnam conflict?

I'm trying to recall a novel I heard about some years ago that focused on a number of third world nations refusing to pay off their loans and the resulting chaos it leads to. I believe it was written in the '70s and may have been done in the style of Hackett's Third World War.

I do look at '39 as the official start as well. I tend to look at works like High Treason as future history rather than alternate history. So for this post what I had in mind was something written either after the war (or even during, but dealing with a time period that had already passed) and...

I've always thought that Swastika Night (1937) was the first of its kind, but is there a novel or short story that predates it?

Back in high school I read about a pretty unique false alarm that happened at a radio station down in Cocoa Beach. They had a goofy DJ that had prepared a modified EBS message in the event that an attack occurred - he had patriotic music in the background and a speech about keeping strong. This...
