During the opening scene of the attack on the French unit, the NVA regulars charge the French. But despite the fact that many of them are carrying the 7.62mm Soviet SKS rifle with fold-back bayonet attachment, almost none of them use any bayonet at all during the charge except the soldier that kills the French officer with his bayonet. This makes no sense when charging with an infantry rifle, because once the breech of a rifle is empty, then it's almost completely useless at close quarters except as a very unwieldy club. This is why bayonets were invented in the first place.
