Thế tất thắng của Q.L.V.N.C.H., 1965 US poster: A two-part photo montage under green banners

Thế tất thắng của Q.L.V.N.C.H. (Success of the Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces)

A two-part photo montage under green banners. The upper half, headed as allied forces co-operating with the Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces (Q.L.V.N.C.H.), shows Australian, U.S. paratrooper and U.S. Marine landing images; the lower half, headed construction in the rear, shows Thai, Korean and New Zealand engineer images. The tell is the coalition roll call: the number of named participating nations is itself the argument, with only favourable activities pictured.
