I saw your last edit to this article. While I agree with most of your edit, you will want to restore the Thais to the list of combatants. They sent the Police Aerial Rescue Unit in as advisors early on in the conflict, and had as many as 17,000 infantry and artillery troopers organized in battalions fighting within Laos towards the end, mostly around the Plaine des Jarres. Thailand also supplied pilots to the Royal Laotian Air Force; the Vientiane "wing" was Thai, and other Thais were spread among the other four "wings" of the RLAF. Which is where I came in, because I was an advisor to the RLAF.
Please don't think I am trying to be mean to you about your start here. We all try not to err, and to catch errors. Some day, you may catch one of mine. I promise you I shall thank you for it.
P.S. Sorry I did not dig out the source for the above info. It resides somewhere on my landfill of a desk....

Ooops. Should have read the article along with the history. My apologies for the false accusation.
