MACV TEAM 33

MACV Team 33, also known as Advisory Team 33, was a U.S. Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV) advisory unit assigned to Bình Định Province during the Vietnam War. The team’s primary mission was to provide military and operational support to the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) and local Regional and Popular Forces in their fight against Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army units. Team 33 advisors worked closely with Vietnamese counterparts, assisting in tactics, logistics, and coordination of combat operations throughout the province. Their efforts contributed to pacification, rural security, and the overall counterinsurgency strategy in central Vietnam until the U.S. withdrawal in the early 1970s.
