Operation Junction City
19th Public Affairs Detachment
Feb. 26, 2020 | 1:00
Operation Junction City (Feb. 22 - April 15, 1967) was the largest single allied operation in the Vietnam War consisting of 30,000 troops. Despite this large force, there were many engagements where the 1st Division was outnumbered but superior artillery and air superiority proved most successful against enemy forces. The VC 9th Division was seriously weakened by the operations, suffering the loss of 2,728 killed, 34 captured men and 139 deserters. After the conclusion of Operation Junction City, the Big Red One continued to flex its might throughout future conflicts within the Vietnam War.
