This is Phuoc Tuy Province, South Vietnam, August 1966. This is a rubber plantation called Long Tan. This is blood and mud and sweat-sodden heat. It's gunfire, mortars and pounding rain. It's 108 Australians and New Zealanders and 2,500 Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army soldiers locked in a ferocious battle. For the young men fighting through the raging monsoon, it's something like the end of the world. After the battle, 17 Australians and more than 245 Vietnamese would lie dead.
