Because the Viet Minh from the 1st Indochina War (aka French Indochina War) would be the equivalent to the Viet Cong of the American Vietnam War.

The NVA would not be included in this analogy because both the Viet Minh & Viet Cong did not come from a recognized nation (the Viet Minh were from an unrecognized country and the VC were actually insurgents against their own government the Republic of South Vietnam). The NVA were actual soldiers inducted, trained, uniformed, and equipped by the nation of North Vietnam; they were the army of North Vietnam (North Vietnamese Army).
