LAGRANGE CANAL (Canal LaGrange) – Vietnam
The LaGrange Canal was throughout both the French Indochina War and the later Vietnam War (American War) used for the transportation of goods for the Viet Minh and later the Viet Cong.
The fields around the LaGrange Canal were considered a communist stronghold.
Both the French army and the French Navy held continuous combat operations along the canal.
The LaGrange canal is located in area known as the ‘Plain of Reeds’ and runs from the Cambodian border into the My Tho River and north towards Saigon (intersecting with the Ong Lon Canal).
The French forces were under continuous attack on the LaGrange Canal.
In the later American War (Vietnam War) the US Army and the US Navy had continuous operations along the LaGrange Canal. It was patrolled on a regular basis by both US Special Forces and the US Navy SEALs.
It was on the banks of the LaGrange Canal at Ap Bac in January 1963 that the Viet Cong had their first victory against a combined US and South Vietnamese Force.
It was to remain a thorn in the heal of the Allies until surrender in 1975.
Operation Giant Slingshot was conducted by US Special Forces / SEALs on the LaGrange Canal.
The LaGrange Canal was patrolled ongoingly during Operation Market Time.
Such is the interest of this area, that US Military Intelligence updated their information on this area twenty years after the end of the War in Vietnam.

LAGRANGE CANAL (Canal LaGrange) - Vietnam
Le canal de LaGrange a été tout au long de la guerre d'Indochine française et la guerre du Vietnam plus tard (guerre américaine) utilisée pour le transport de marchandises pour le Viet Minh et plus tard le Viet Cong.
Les champs autour du canal de LaGrange étaient considérés comme un bastion communiste.
L'armée française et la marine française ont mené des opérations de combat continues le long du canal.
Le canal de LaGrange est situé dans la région connue sous le nom de «plaine des roseaux» et s'étend de la frontière cambodgienne dans la rivière My Tho et au nord vers Saigon (intersection avec le canal Ong Lon).
Les forces françaises étaient constamment attaquées sur le canal de LaGrange.
Au cours de la dernière guerre américaine (guerre du Vietnam), l'armée américaine et la marine américaine ont mené des opérations continues le long du canal LaGrange. Il a été patrouillé régulièrement par les forces spéciales américaines et les US Navy SEAL.
C'est sur les rives du canal de LaGrange, à Ap Bac, en janvier 1963, que les Viet Cong ont remporté leur première victoire face à une force combinée américaine et sud-vietnamienne.
Il devait rester une épine dans la guérison des Alliés jusqu'à leur reddition en 1975.
Opération Giant Slingshot a été menée par les forces spéciales américaines / SEAL sur le canal de LaGrange.
Le canal LaGrange a été patrouillé continuellement pendant l'opération Market Time.
Tel est l'intérêt de cette région, que les renseignements militaires américains ont mis à jour leurs informations sur cette zone vingt ans après la fin de la guerre au Vietnam.
