Experience: WRONG, wrong, wrong... wrong. The VC fought against the Japanese in WWII as the Viet Minh, under the leadership of future NVA general Vo Nguyen Giap. After gaining their battle scars against their imperialist occupiers, then they defeated the French, then the U.S. The VC was disbanded after the 1975 fall of Saigon, but many of its surviving members merged with the NVA (which became the People's Army of Viet Nam, or PAVN), which fought against the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, China, and Laos. The VC easily outclass the Mujahideen fighters, who've only got experience against the Soviets and (more recently) American forces.
