Binh sĩ Thủy quân Lục chiến Đại Hàn bảo vệ và giúp đỡ đồng bào (Korean Marines Protect and Help the People)
A Vietnamese-language sheet (code SP-1599) pairs photographs of Korean Marines handing out rice sacks and tinned goods to villagers with captions saying they helped the Republic of Vietnam government recover food 'plundered by the Viet Cong'. The headline says the Korean Marines 'protect and help the people'. Positive aid scenes and a one-line charge against the enemy are the whole argument.
