mil24a in a support mission for the INF defend the border zone in 1977 , Khmer rouge during Vietnam war have been start attacking our troop in Cambodia after they taking over Cambodia in 1975 they first start to kill million of they own people ( mostly city and educate and also people wear glass yup you heard me right you wear glass = kill ) they also start to kill entire Vietnamese-Cambodian population , 1/3 or 2/3 of Laotian Cambodian ( many mange to flee back to lao , the Laotian mostly live near the border so when Khmer rouge start killing off ethnic minority and they own people a lot manage to flee, while Vietnamese mostly live in capital and big city and were first to be target ) , 1/3 of Chinese cambodian ( much less then other ethnic minority ) cause they are support by china and those 1/3 are PRO KMT (Taiwan) anti PRC govt Chinese ) they also kill thai Cambodian , after set up killing field they start to harras the Vietnam-Cambodia border from 1976-1978-9 which more Chinese support they start to intensify they harras campaign in 1978-79 ( shelling , raiding ) the breaking point was ba chuc village mass killing where a company of Khmer rouge manage to infiltrate and kill entire village after looting , raping ( only few manage to flee and hide ) they rape from kid to elder and after the victim was rape they will stick a bamboo pole to the P hole killing the victim slowly and painfully bleeding , while man and kid are beat to dead if they are not woman , tho chu island is also another case where they hit the limit where they manage to capture entire island and kill entire population on the island (500 house hold only 1 family survive cause they return to mainland few month befor ) ( the island now are repopulate and are fortify so there wont be second incident like it happened if Cambodia have another maniac like polpot ) btw can I post graphic image @BravoZulu ? cause ba chuc picture are pretty bad it made ISIS look like a Lite version of Khmer rouge .

I heard about the Khmer Rouge raids into Vietnam, for example, the Ba Chuc massacre.

BTW, ddid you know that a number of hight ranking KR members, including Pol Pot himself were of at least partial Chinese descent?

Do you have any pics of Vietnamese troops in Cambodia during that period?
 
How widespread were steel helmets used by the PAVN during the 1980s-90s period? Or did most of the Army use pith helmets all the time, even in combat?

there were plenty of steel helmet , but troop don't like it ( and if you have been to Cambodia or southern Vietnam you will know why , the sun heat up the steel helmet up real bad ) from what I seen steel helmet used mostly by arty troop but then they also quickly stop using it , Khmer rouge doesn't have a real arty after we driven them to Thailand so there basic no counter arty shelling from Khmer rouge , steel helmet are used more widely in sino-Vietnam war where arty are more widely used by both side ( by both arty troop and inf in later 1980-89) . btw polpot also have Chinese blood , while some high rank Khmer rouge member like brother 3 are actually from southern Vietnam ( Khmer father , Vietnamese mother but that fker really hate Vietnamese for some reason ) Khmer rouge at the start was just like Vietminh , it only in later period where the origin leader was kill or driven out to other country and polpot( which must help from the Chinese ) take over that they become aggressive Neo maoist brutal murder , they first kill all neutral faction , pro Vietnam faction , pro soviet faction and in later period ( 1977-9) they start to kill member within it faction blaming they are Vietnam agent or western agent , that why hun sen and other Khmer rouge member flee to Vietnam with his troop

One of Southern Vietnam Helicopter Company's (VNH South) Eurocopter EC225 Super Pumas was used to transport a 55-year old Vietnamese fisherman from Trường Sa Island in the Vietnamese-controlled portion of the Spratly Islands. The fisherman had suffered a stroke and was stabilized at the island's clinic before being flown back to Military Hospital 175 in Ho Chi Minh City, mainland Vietnam.
VNH South is part of the Vietnam Helicopter Corporation, a company known for offering tourist flights and cargo transport and also oil service fly around in Vietnam while helping to build the economy. In reality the corporation is a fully functioning military unit known as the 18th Army Corps and operates Vietnam's most modern European helicopters such as the AgustaWestland AW189, AS365 Dauphin, and others. During wartime they supplement the Vietnam People's Air Defense-Air Force with a fresh supply of helicopters & pilots that can undertake combat missions. army corp 18 fly European helicopter and also American helicopter source vietdefense , qdnd btw: the fisherman will not have to pay a single $ for his treatment and the flight , if you are fisherman and you get in a accident in spartly or sea all the cost will be pay by the govt
