The Vietnam Tunnel Rats Association Inc was formed for all who served with one of the Field Troops. Membership is exclusively for men who served in Vietnam with either 3 Field Troop, 1 Troop, 2 Troop or 3 Troop of 1 Fd Sqn. This is not an attempt to exclude, but to bring together the Field Engineers. The members of the Field Troops fought alongside the Infantry plus they performed their additional tasks of mine and booby trap detection and clearing, plus bunker and tunnel searching and demolition.
Other units are free to form their own Association.
