Đầu năm 2006, báo chí Mỹ và Việt Nam đăng tin về vụ kiện của các cựu binh Hoa Kỳ đòi bồi thường 700.000 USD đối với Daniel Marvin – tác giả cuốn hồi ký Expendable Elite – One Soldier’s Journey Into Covert Warfare (Biệt đội tinh nhuệ – Hành trình trong cuộc chiến bí mật) – vì cho rằng Marvin đã bôi nhọ họ – những người lính đặc nhiệm trong chiến tranh Việt Nam.
Marvin kể lại những hoạt động của đơn vị ông khi làm nhiệm vụ tại quận An Phú tỉnh Châu Đốc năm 1966, trong đó ông công bố việc CIA đã từng yêu cầu đơn vị của ông ngầm đi ám sát quốc trưởng nước Campuchia trung lập lúc bấy giờ là thái tử Sihanouk. Ngoài ra, ông cũng phê phán những tội ác mà lính đặc nhiệm Hoa Kỳ gây ra tại Việt Nam .
Phía trước đồn Vĩnh Lợi xã Vĩnh Lộc, nay là UBND xã Vĩnh Lộc.
Khoảng trước năm 2000, hai lô cốt bằng đá vẫn còn nằm phía trước UBND xã Vĩnh Lộc. Sau đó, mặt đường được nâng cao lên, tòa nhà UBND thấp hơn mặt đường và được tu sửa để sử dụng trong vài năm. Hiện nay, UBND dời sang tòa nhà mới xây phía bên tòa nhà cũ, tòa nhà cũ trở thành trụ sở công an xã Vĩnh Lộc.

SAIGON, South Vietnam, Wednesday, April 1—The South Vietnamese Army’s penetration of Cambodian territory last week has caused considerable concern among United States diplomats here.
Senior members of the Unit ed States mission are worried that if the South Vietnamese continue to conduct sweeps across the Cambodian border, they will threaten the neutral ity of the new regime in Pnom penh and complicate American efforts to stay out of the Cam bodian crisis.
On the other hand, the South Vietnamese appear eager to ex ploit the changing situation.
SAIGON, South Vietnam, March 25—South Vietnamese Air Force planes have struck inside Cambodia at least twice in the last week, in support of Cambodian Army operations against the Vietcong, reliable sources said today.
On Friday, March 20, and again on Monday of this week, South Vietnamese A1‐E fighter bombers attacked positions be lieved to have been occupied by the enemy a few miles inside Cambodia across from Anphu district in Chaudoc Province.
[In Pnompenh, Prince Siso wath Sirik Matak, the First Deputy Premier, disclosed that the Cambodian Govern ment had received notifica tion from North Vietnam and the Vietcong that they were recalling their diplomats from Cambodia. Page 17.]
ANPHU, South Vietnam, March 20—An American spotter plane and South Vietnamese ar tillery were called in by a Cam bodian Army commander today during a two‐hour battle against Vietcong troops inside Cam bodia.
While Cambodian and South Vietnamese officers exchanged instructions on American‐sup plied radios, the American plane provided aerial recon naissance and a battery of South Vietnamese howitzers pounded enemy positions just across the border.
The clash erupted about mid day during a sweep of a Viet cong sanctuary by a Cambodian force of battalion size about 10 miles north of this district capi tal.
CHAUDOC, South Vietnam, March 17 — Cambodian troops tried to drive a Vietcong battal ion back across the border into South Vietnam yesterday and Sunday and called in South Vietnamese artillery fire to help, highly reliable informants reported today.
A Cambodian officer was in radio contact with the chief of South Vietnam's Anphu Dis trict, adjoining Cambodia, dur ing the entire operation, these informants said. The officer di rected 105‐mm artillery fire from the district's guns onto both sides of the border where the Vietcong were reported moving.
