Default The Longest War: First Tet Offensive Badge

The Longest War: First Tet Offensive Badge

From the Webmaster:

EXCERPT: "This badge was presented to those soldiers, who participated
in the first Tet Offensive in 1968. The SRV flag is inscribed QUYET
THANG (Resolved to Win) above the gold star and CHIEN THANG (Victory)
1968. This is an interesting concept, since it is a fact that the NLF
suffered heavy losses during the Tet Counteroffensive that the PAVN
had to staff their units for the balance of the war against the
Americans...."
