French Military Cemetery, Saigon

French Military Cemetery, Saigon, was a military cemetery in Saigon, Vietnam.
The cemetery was located at the Bay Hien intersection south of Tan Son Nhut Air Base.
During the Battle of West Saigon, the cemetery was the scene of extensive fighting between Viet Cong and Army of the Republic of Vietnam forces on 6-7 May 1968.
The cemetery was maintained at French expense, but in 1982 the Vietnamese government requested that the remains be removed from three cemeteries in densely populated areas. Rather than reburying the remains in Vietnam, it was decided to repatriate them to France.
Franco-Vietnamese agreements of 2 August 1986 provided for the repatriation to France of 27,000 bodies of French soldiers and civilians from the Saigon cemetery, Vũng Tàu cemetery and Ba Huyen cemetery near Hanoi. All remains were exhumed and repatriated between 1986 and 1987 and later reinterred at the Mémorial des guerres en Indochine in Fréjus, France.
The former cemetery is now the Công Viên Nhà thi đấu Tân Bình park.
