A valuable addition to your collection of Vietnam war memorabilia items.During the Battle of Dien Bien Phu, which took place from March to May 1954 during the First Indochina War, the French Air Force did not include units from Senegal. The French Air Force played a crucial role in providing air support and supplies to the besieged French forces at Dien Bien Phu, but the participating units were primarily composed of French personnel.The Battle of Dien Bien Phu was a decisive confrontation between the French Union forces and the communist Viet Minh forces led by General Vo Nguyen Giap. The French established a fortified camp at Dien Bien Phu in an attempt to lure the Viet Minh into a conventional battle, but they were eventually surrounded and subjected to intense artillery fire.To support the French forces at Dien Bien Phu, the French Air Force conducted air resupply missions, evacuated wounded soldiers, and provided close air support. However, there were no specific units from Senegal involved in the battle.Senegal, as a French colony at the time, did contribute troops to the French Union forces during the First Indochina War. Senegalese soldiers, mainly from the Tirailleurs Sénégalais (Senegalese Riflemen) units, served alongside French forces in various capacities throughout the conflict. However, their involvement in the Battle of Dien Bien Phu was not significant or specific to the air operations conducted by the French Air Force.
