Uniform and/or weapon. A green pith helmet was NVA; a US issued steel pot (M1 helmet) was an ARVN. If the helmet was missing, then we went by weapon... The US's FIRST introduction to the AK47 & SKS was in the Vietnam War...they didn't exist in the United States, except for special training/military intelligence purposes. In Vietnam ANYONE with an AK was instantly taken under fire. Even the CIA and Special Forces/SEALS men used caution around US troops when carrying those weapons...the AK was a badge of communism. It was as good as an enemy uniform!
