History

Vietnam War
For the military use of this facility before 1975, see Long Binh Post.

During the Vietnam War, Long Binh Post was a major U.S. Army base, logistics center, and major command headquarters for United States Army Vietnam (USARV).

2000s and 2010s

The area Long Binh, Bien Hoa, originally occupied by the Long Binh post is as of 2008 largely given over to industrial use, known as Long Binh Techno Park, and a shopping complex that includes a large western-style Cora supermarket. When it opens, Line 1 of the HCMC Metro will have its terminus at Long Binh, District 9, Ho Chi Minh City; work commenced in February 2008 on the Long Binh depot.[1]
