Marines Sweep Khe Sanh in New Offensive Aim to Spoil North Vietnamese Push
Thousands of allied troops scoured valleys near Khe Sanh and the Da Nang area in fresh offensives to spoil enemy attacks. They found stockpiles including 200 rounds of 152mm artillery and 100 fuses, indicating possible North Vietnamese intent to move large Russian guns into the South. Four American aircraft were lost in three days, including an observation plane, a reconnaissance helicopter, an A7 Corsair, and an assault helicopter near the Cambodian border. The Marines returned to Khe Sanh for a new sweep, acting on intelligence that North Vietnamese troops had moved in, though the force remained unopposed and did not plan to stay.
