MACV TEAM 64

Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV) Team 64, also known as Advisory Team 64, was a United States military advisory unit that operated during the Vietnam War. Based primarily in Kien Tuong Province, in the Mekong Delta region, the team’s mission was to provide military advice, training, and support to the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) and local Regional and Popular Forces. Team 64 played a crucial role in counterinsurgency operations, helping to coordinate joint operations and improve the effectiveness of South Vietnamese military units against Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces. The efforts of MACV Team 64 contributed to the broader U.S. strategy of Vietnamization and the strengthening of South Vietnamese self-defense capabilities before the American withdrawal.
