Description: Vietnam war in-country machine embroidered patch measures 3.5" by 2.5", used condition. A valuable addition to your Vietnam war military memorabilia collection. The Australian Army Training Team Vietnam (AATTV) was a specialist unit of the Australian Army that operated during the Vietnam War. Raised in 1962, the unit was raised solely for service as part of Australia's contribution to the war in Vietnam, providing training and assistance to South Vietnamese forces. Members of the team were involved in many combat operations, often commanding formations of Vietnamese soldiers. Some advisors worked with regular ARVN units and formations, while others worked with the Montagnard hill tribes in conjunction with US Special Forces. A few were involved in the controversial Phoenix Program run by the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), which was designed to target the Vietcong infrastructure through infiltration, arrest and assassination. Due to its small size and widespread area of operations, it was rare for the entire unit to be in the same place at the same time; this usually occurred only on ANZAC Day. It is believed to be the most decorated Australian unit to serve in Vietnam with members of the unit receiving over 100 decorations, including four Victoria Crosses, while it was in existence. The unit was disbanded in late 1972 when Australia ended its commitment to the war. Worldwide combined shipment is welcome to save you money.
