VICTORY IN BINH TUY

In November and December '65, the forces of the Republic of Vietnam and the Allies launched Operation DAN SINH 65, defeating Viet Cong units in the Tanh Linh - Vo Dat area of Binh Tuy province.

On this occasion, 190 people who had lost their way returned to the National cause. Besides a large number of Viet Cong destroyed, 151 V.C. were captured by our troops in this operation.

One of the main aims of the operation was to help the people harvest their rice in time so that it would not be plundered by the Viet Cong.

Vietnamese and American doctors and nurses of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam and the Allies also devotedly helped to examine the sick and hand out medicine to the people in the area.

OUR COMMON GOAL:
TO WIN AND SERVE.
