Today is Vietnam Veterans Day and also marks 53 years since the Battle of Long Tan.
The Battle of Long Tan: 105 Australians and 3 New Zealanders vs. 1500-2500 Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces. This remains as one of the most significant battles during the Vietnam War in Australian military history.
I understand the controversies around the Vietnam War and am fully aware of the poor treatment our Vietnam Veterans received after it.
I will always honour those who served and the 521 Australians who made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you for fighting for my family's freedom.
Lest We Forget.
Lots o' Love, Linda
