I think I have what I wanted to find out about the units that arrive from the Allied invasion of Thailand. If I have missed anything on those 4 units please post it here.
Thanks

Thailand is not Indochina is not Vietnam. Indochina is a generic western name for the region but Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam were already separate states and Laos broke away soon after the war. So the Viet Minh are only triggered if Vietnam is invaded. I am not sure about the Thai reinforcements because the Allies do not usually get to invade there before the Thai government switched sides (in 1944?).

The Vietminh worked with the US OSS in the later part of the war but on guerilla activity, not nationally organized troops IIRC. Their prime motivator was to free their country from colonization by any other country, including Japan and France. Unfortunately the support the US had for their aims withered after the war and the French came back expecting to resume their former colonial policies. Not good for anyone.
