U S B52s bombed North Vietnam just above the DMZ while tactical strikes hit inside the zone as allied forces tightened the noose around Communist units. A company of the 1st Cavalry burned a Viet Cong hamlet near Qui Nhon and US helicopters reported 20 enemy killed. South Vietnamese paratroopers clashed with North Vietnamese near Dong Ha, with estimates of 200 killed.
