Small Victory is a 1958 television play broadcast by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. It was set during the Korean War.[2] It was directed by William Sterling and was shot in Melbourne where it aired 26 March 1958.[3]

It was based on a play by Australian author Iain MacCormick. The ABC later broadcast Sound of Thunder and Act of Violence (1959) by MacCormick.[4] Australian TV drama at the time would customarily consist of adaptations of stories that had been tried overseas.[5]
