Today in Australia we are commemorating the 40th anniversary of the battle of Long Tan,, August 18 1966,, in which 120 Aussie soldiers fought 2500 Viet Cong in a rubber plantation,, the Aussies fought the enemy for over 4 hours and sustained 18 dead ,, it is estimated that the Viet cong sustained over 1000 dead, (estimates) I believe this battle has been largely overlooked in the annuls of Australia's military history,,

I don't want to click a link on here with the jerks that send viruses. I'll check it out on yahoo groups though.

"Thank You!" to each one of you! You (along with ALL other Veterans) have the gratitude of a kid born in the mid-1970's.
May God bless all of you!
