When I was in Vietnam there were Yanks who claimed they could tell a north Vietnamese from a southerner, a Cambodian from a Thai, a Chinese from a Korean, etc. All pure hokum.
Then there was a `friend/foe recognition guide’ which showed the same bucktoothed Oriental in a conical hat but with six different captions:
Friendly Vietnamese peasant
Hardcore Viet Cong
Neutral Cambodian
Ethnic Chinese local
North Vietnamese officer
Your local PX manager
I said “their”, not some other guy’s.
