Phước Tuy province

Phước Tuy was a province of the former South Vietnam.
It now mostly corresponds to Bà Rịa–Vũng Tàu province, just southeast of Ho Chi Minh City in reunified Vietnam.
During the Vietnam War it was the main region of operations for the 1st Australian Task Force.

In 1975, Phước Tuy was one among five last Army of the Republic of Vietnam fronts defending Saigon against the People's Army of Vietnam forces before its fall on 30 April. The ARVN 3rd Infantry Division and the 1st Airborne Brigade there had fought fiercely with the PAVN 3rd Division (Sao Vàng) before being overrun at noon of 30 April.
