Unit's history in Vietnam: The RAA 3rd Cavalry Regiment had a squadron serving in South Vietnam for nearly six years. Between 1967 and 1972, the men from the regiment served in every major operation conducted by the 1st Australian Task Force (1ATF), including the Tet Offensive, the 1968 battles for Fire Support Bases Coral and Balmoral, and the battle of Binh Ba in 1969. Using Armored Personal Carriers (APCs), the regiment’s squadron was a highly mobile force that served throughout Phuoc Tuy province. Australian APCs had been serving in Vietnam since 1965: initially with the 1 Troop, A Squadron, 4th/19th Prince of Wales’s Light Horse Regiment, subsequently named 1 APC Troop of 1 APC Squadron. In January 1967, 1st APC Squadron became A Squadron, 3rd Cavalry Regiment. The squadron’s strength in South Vietnam at the time was 117: 10 officers, 14 warrant officers/sergeants, and 93 other ranks. The squadron’s strength increased over time and by August 1971 had grown to 169 men: 15 officers, 22 warrant officers/sergeants, and 132 other ranks. A Squadron was located with the Task Force at Nui Dat. For any unsatisfactory reason, item can be returned within 30 days for full refund. For more selection, please visit our eBay store. Thanks!
