I think the answer you want may be ARVN (Army of the Republic of Vietnam). It is pronounced and sometimes spelled as "Arvin."
Russian Communism (the Soviet Union) is a Traditional Communist State and Vietnamese Communism (People's Republic of Vietnam) is a Leninist Communist State.Traditional Communist States: Traditional Communism requires an autocratic government ruled by the Communist Party, but primarily guided by individual politicians. The government is required to collectivize private property and redistribute wealth. Stalin's Soviet Union and Cuba are often seen as examples of traditional communism.Leninist Communist States: China and Vietnam are Leninist Communist States. Leninist Communism is the political theory that a single party called the Communist Party rules the government and governs all affairs as opposed to individual politicians. Although the single party in a Leninist Communist State is the the Communist Party, the party need not practice Communist political theory. In both China and Vietnam, there is a state-directed, right-wing economic and political theory.
