The battles to defend the besieged AUSTRALIAN FIREBASES Coral & Balmoral took place during the 1968 TET Offensive, in Military Region III (III Corps), near the South Vietnamese Capital of Saigon. Although Firebase Coral was over-run by combination NVA/VC units, and one Australian 105mm Field Gun was taken, the base was re-taken by Australian Mounted Units consisting of Centurian tanks and M-113's (APC's-Armored Personnel Carriers), which reinforced the 1st & 3rd Australian Royal Infantry.
