The South Vietnamese Army was referred to as the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN).

US Army recruitment office. The US Army has airborne divisions. There are other branches of the service that have airborne fighters, but, the US Army has more airborne soldiers than any other branch of the military.
The ARVN's may have had some regiments by that number; but not the US. The only US Army (Marines didn't use em) Airborne Divisions and Brigades in Vietnam were: 1. 82nd Abn 2. 173rd Abn 3. 101st Abn (Ambl) US Special Forces are not counted. The 101st Abn was technically an Airmobile Division in Vietnam. There was actually controversy in Vietnam on whether or not the 101st shoulder patch should be changed to read (on the tab) AIRMOBILE instead of AIRBORNE. As any active duty servicemember can tell you, they still read "Airborne."
What year? In 1971 the 101st Airborne Div. (Airmobile) was there. You need to see Shelby's book "Vietnam Order of Battle." That book lists all the USA (US Army) units in the Nam. From 1968 to January 1972 the 27th Combat Engineers and the 101st Airborne Engineers.
