Operation Junction City

Operation Junction City was a major military campaign during the Vietnam War, conducted by U.S. and South Vietnamese forces from February to May 1967. Its primary goal was to destroy North Vietnamese and Viet Cong strongholds in the Tay Ninh Province, near the Cambodian border. Utilizing a large-scale ground offensive with troops and helicopters, the operation aimed to disrupt enemy supply lines and regain control of the region. Despite some initial successes, it faced challenges, including difficult terrain and resilient enemy forces, ultimately leading to a mixed outcome that highlighted the complexities of the conflict.
