Tet Offensive: This unofficial clasp covers the period of the 'Tet Offensive' (January- September 1968)

The Tet Offensive (or, 'general offensive and uprising of Tet Mau Than) marked a major escalation and one of the largest military campaigns of the Vietnam War. It was launched on January 30, 1968 by forces of the Viet Cong (VC) and North Vietnamese People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) against the forces of the South Vietnamese Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN), the United States Armed Forces and their allies. It was a campaign of surprise attacks against military and civilian command and control centers throughout South Vietnam. The name is the truncated version of the Lunar New Year festival in Vietnamese

A rare seen unofficial campaign clasp - the clasp not recorded in 'The Decorations and Medals of the Republic of Vietnam and Her Allies 1950 to 1975' (John Sylvester & Frank Foster, 1995)
