Various sizes. 2-1/2" x 4-3/4" to 4-1/4" x 5-5/8" <br/><br/>A collection of 5 different examples of GVN propaganda leaflets two of which appear to have been issued by South Vietnam as part of their psyops rather than US military forces. Includes: - "Dong Bai": patriotic message printed over top of a South Vietnamese flag in dk yellow and red with text to verso warning of severe retribution for any who shoot down ARVN planes. No code number. - "Ky-Niem Chua Xot" ~ "Bitter Memory": half-tone photograph of a large smiling family to recto; text to verso explaining that the photo was found beside the body of a dead VC soldier and encouraging VC soldiers to defect or face the same fate. Code DV157AH301165.

Code SP-744. Possibly the earliest defoliation leaflet issued. - Five dong currency: parody of banknote printed to recto; text to verso is a safe conduct pass. Believed to be from the earlier high quality distribution that occurred in 1965-66. Although these "banknotes" were highly successful as safe conduct passes and slightly smaller than government currency they soon entered the economy and were eventually stopped due to the political repercussions of a foreign government dropping another country's defacto currency on its citizens. Three copies. Likely distributed by means other than an air drop though indubitably part of that campaign. Quite rare to find in this condition. unknown books

An army of civilians nearly 10000-strong made up primarily of young people and led by a contingent of 100 women marched from the G.I. Coffee House in Wrightstown toward Ft. Dix. The march began at noon with speakers from the Rainbow Coalition -- Black Panther Party the Young Lords Organization and the Young Patriots -- addressing the crowd. The group marched upon the base and made their way inside the eastern perimeter before being stopped by MP's with bayonets and tear gas. Because of the strong sympathy for the marchers among teh 32000 GI's stationed at Dix more than half the MP's were put on restriction the following day and in the coming days all 375 prisoners were either transfered or released from the stockades.
