In a somber moment, we will visit Long Tan Cross Memorial established at Long Tan for the 17 Australian Infantrymen and 1 APC crewman killed in action during the Battle of Long Tan on August 18, 1966.The cross was first erected on the site in 1969 when the 6th Battalion, the Royal Australian Regiment, which fought in the Battle, was on its second tour of duty. In 1986 a replica of the cross was placed on the original site. In 2017, the Vietnamese Government gifted the original cross to Australia, and it is now on display at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra.
