The VC were hard to ID because they were South Vietnamese themselves. They were part of the South Viet population.
The NVA were easy to ID, they wore OD (or OG) army fatiques just like GIs, but they wore green pith helmets instead of GI steel helmets.
When you hear of "talk" from old timers, or something you read, it's from those early days of the war, when the VC were the main enemy. After 1968, the NVA took over the fight. And they were regular army and easily ID'd.
