Mr Bevis
asked the Minister representing the Minister for Defence, in writing, on 9 February 2005:
(1) In respect of Australian veterans at the Battle of Long Tan in the Vietnam War, can the Minister confirm that all Australians who were awarded an individual citation from the then Government of the Republic of Vietnam have been given permission to wear them.
(2) Has the Government also authorised the wearing, by Australian veterans, of unit citations and awards provided by the then Government of the Republic of Vietnam; if so, when; if not, why not.
Mrs De-Anne Kelly (Minister for Veterans’ Affairs)
—The Minister for Defence has provided the following answer to the honourable member’s question:
(1) No. The Government is unable to confirm that all Australian veterans of the Battle of Long Tan who were awarded individual citations and awards by the then Government of the Republic of Vietnam have permission to wear them. Each veteran has to apply to the Australian Government to have individual citations and awards formally approved for wearing.
(2) Yes. At the time of the Vietnam War, the Government accepted an offer and approved the wearing of a Cross of Gallantry Unit Citation for the following three units:
- Australian Army Training Team Vietnam (1970);
- 8th Battalion the Royal Australian Regiment (1970); and
- No 2 Squadron RAAF (1970).
