# Hoi Chanh in Armed Team Work for Peace in Tanh Linh, Binh Tuy Province

A landscape sheet presents former Viet Cong now serving in an armed propaganda team in Tanh Linh, Binh Tuy province, shown posting leaflets, discussing a new constitution with villagers, handing out newspapers, digging a drain and giving out papers to special forces soldiers. The central text says they once taxed and harassed the people and now enjoy citizens' rights through the Chieu Hoi policy. The tell is the before-and-after frame: the sheet offers the rallier's changed role as the evidence of the programme's results.

RALLIERS IN THE ARMED PROPAGANDA TEAM CONTRIBUTE TO BUILDING PEACE FOR THE TANH LINH AREA, BINH TUY PROVINCE

The armed propaganda team brings peace by helping the people of the Tanh Linh area. Formerly they were Viet Cong followers who specialised in sabotage, collecting taxes and harassing the people. Now they have returned to the National cause to enjoy again the rights of citizens thanks to the Chieu Hoi policy.

5 ralliers of the armed propaganda team are visiting a family to put up a poster and explain the importance of taking part in the elections.

Books and newspapers about the Government's programmes to bring a new life to the Vietnamese people are distributed to families to study.

The armed propaganda team leader, together with a politically aware villager, discusses a new poster about the Constitution of Vietnam.

The armed propaganda team is clearing a drainage ditch.

Formerly enemies, now they contribute their strength to defeat the Viet Cong to bring peace to the country. Members of the armed propaganda team are distributing books and newspapers to Vietnamese Special Forces soldiers.

Translation is FRAME's own literal rendering from the Vietnamese printed text, machine-assisted and not verified by a fluent reader; a few diacritics are faint at this resolution. The caption beginning 'Đoàn trưởng' has a garbled phrase ('ĐANG CŨNG MỘT NGƯỜI DÂN LÀNG') as printed; the translation follows the evident sense.
