C. Avoid defeat until the Americans gave up The Vietcong and the north Vietnamese knew that the Americans weren't used to ans couldn't handle the terrain and jungle weather in Vietnam and were therefore at a disadvantage. The Vietcong managed to hang in there until American troops were pulled out in 1975.
