This media file displays two exhibit panels, likely from a museum in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, showcasing historical badges related to anti-Vietnam War protests in the United States. The panels are presented against a blue background, suggesting a display board or wall. The primary focus is on the left panel, featuring a circular yellow badge with text in dark blue and red that reads "SUPPORT OUR BOYS BRING THEM HOME NOW". This panel includes descriptions in both Vietnamese and English. The English text states: "The badge was issued in 1967 and used in an anti-Vietnam war demonstration in Houston, Texas. In July 1967, the Houston Committee to End the War in Vietnam, the Student for Democratic Society (SDS), and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee formed an antiwar coalition to co-organize an antiwar protest. Leading the protest was a banner reading "SUPPORT OUR BOYS - BRING THEM HOME NOW," demanding that the U.S. government withdraw its troops from Vietnam and end the war." The Vietnamese title translates to the same slogan. Partially visible on the right is a second panel, also in Vietnamese and English, titled "LABOR MARCHES ON WASHINGTON - NOV. 15 - STOP THE WAR" Badge. The visible English text for this panel mentions: "On November 15, 1969, an antiwar march participants took place along Fifth Ave... commemorating the fourth anniversary of... self-immolation in front of the Pentagon... involvement in the Vietnam War." The descriptions on both panels provide historical context for the badges as symbols of the anti-war movement during the Vietnam War era.
