Remember, Uncle Ho was preoccupied with being pissed at the French at that time. He really didn't actively get pissed at the US until the US allied with the French against him, mid to late 1946 approximately.

Remember, the Truman administration began before the end of WW2. The O.S.S. was supporting the Viet Minh during that time.

Google is your friend.....
What you have posted here is pretty much correct, in contrast to your previous post.
We didn't sell arms to Ho, we gave them to him, and it started during FDRs term, not Trumans.
