A case could be made that the US even won the "insurgency" phase of the Vietnam War as well, since after the Tet Offensive of '68 the VC was pretty much gutted as an effective force and the war continued almost exclusively through the use of NVA troops.

They were sacrificed for the specific purpose of annihilation. The north wanted them out of the way.
