Vietnam War 50th anniversary collection
Products to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the end of Australia's involvement in the Vietnam War
The last Australian troops left Vietnam in December 1972 and Australia's war officially ended on 11 January 1973 with a proclamation by Governor-General Paul Hasluck. Almost 60,000 Australians from all three services served in Vietnam. More than 3,000 service personnel were wounded and 521 lost their lives. The Australian Vietnam Forces National Memorial remembers the courage and sacrifice of all those who served.
In 2023, the Australian Government will mark the 50th anniversary of the end of Australia's involvement in the Vietnam War, culminating with a National Commemorative Service in Canberra on 18 August 2023.
Vietnam Digger Miniature Figurine Set
This special set contains the Vietnam Digger Miniature Figurine, Miniature Figurine Stand, and 3D Frame.
The figurine fits perfectly with our acrylic frame display stand and 3D object frames to create a unique display for your desk or shelf. The 3D Object Frame system is more than a simple picture frame, the amazing silicon membraned frame can be used to showcase photographs, souvenirs or mementos.
The frame's contents are suspended between two flexible silicone membranes and appear to be 'levitating' in the frame. Hinges allow easy access to items when they need to be removed from the frame.
Medals and photgraph not included.
ORDERVietnam Figurines
The uniform and equipment worn by this infantryman is representative of Australian servicemen during the conflict in Vietnam. The floppy design of his bush hat, or 'giggle hat', was intended to break up the outline of the head, helping to camouflage the wearer, as well as providing protection from the elements. He is armed with the iconic L1A1 Self Loading Rifle, which was the standard battle rifle of the Australian Army from 1960 to 1992. His equipment has been optimised for patrolling in the dense tropical forests of Vietnam. Several water canteens and ammunition pouches are attached to US M1956 Load-Carrying Equipment webbing and a cotton mesh sweat rag is worn around the neck. The Army issued combat shirt and trousers would have been a subdued shade of Jungle Green, often referred to 'jaygees'.
