Please visit the Mobile Riverine Force Association[www.mrfa.org], the Seawolf Association[seawolf.org], or the Gamewardens Association[www.tf116.org] for more information about these amazing sailors and soldiers...and if you happen to meet a Vietnam Veteran, please take a minute to shake his or her hand and say "Welcome Home". Even now, some Vietnam Veterans are only beginning to get the acknowledgement and gratitude they should have received the day they stepped foot back on U.S. soil.

To each and every Vietnam Veteran: Thank you and Welcome Home.

The Mobile Riverine Force (MRF) Mod Collection is designed to enhance the history behind and experience of the Arma 3 Creator DLC: S.O.G. Prairie Fire by Savage Game Design. It will come to include playable compositions such as LST ships, river-based artillery platforms, and other vehicles and useful objects.

The brown-water Mobile Riverine Force was a joint venture between the Navy and the Army, modeled after the earlier French Riverine and coastal patrols in the First Indochina War (1946–1954). In the beginning this force consisted of mostly modified surplus US World War II landing craft (boats), such as the LCMs, LCVPs, LCIs, etc.

Along with PBRs, other riverine craft included PCFs, ASPBs, and monitors (modified LCMs). Together these craft formed a Mobile Riverine Force, that utilized various supporting facilities, such as the Yard Repair Berthing and Messings, advance bases, LSTs, and US Navy HA(L)-3 Seawolf helicopter gunships.

The brown-water navy (in conjunction with other efforts, such as Operation Market Time and Operation Game Warden) was largely successful in its efforts to stop North Vietnam using the South Vietnamese coast and rivers to resupply its military and the Viet Cong. The flow of weapons and ammunition came to a virtual standstill during Operation Market Time, from 1965 and 1970.
