Company D, 1st Battalion, 11th Infantry Brigade, 5th Infantry Division (Mechanized), played a significant role during the Vietnam War. Activated as part of the division's deployment to Vietnam in 1968, the unit participated in intense combat operations, particularly in the Quảng Trị Province near the Demilitarized Zone. Company D was involved in search-and-destroy missions, convoy security, and counterinsurgency efforts against North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong forces. Their actions contributed to the 5th Division's efforts to secure critical areas and disrupt enemy supply lines until the division's redeployment from Vietnam in 1971.
