The Battle of Long Tan, fought in mid-August 1966, remains one of the most significant and heroic events in Australian military history. During this intense confrontation, a mere 108 soldiers from Delta Company, 6th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment, alongside their New Zealand counterparts, faced off against a formidable force of approximately 2,500 Viet Cong troops. Despite being heavily outnumbered, the Aussies and Kiwis displayed extraordinary courage and tactical prowess, resulting in a remarkable defensive victory. Under the relentless barrage of enemy fire, they managed to inflict significant casualties on the Viet Cong, while sustaining substantial losses themselves. This legendary battle, epitomising traits such as courage, mateship, and resilience, has been immortalised in a commemorative coin by the Bradford Exchange.
