Five GIs Wounded as U S Forces Face Viet Cong Near Saigon
In a surge of fighting 50 miles from Saigon the U S 1st Air Cavalry and Viet Cong clashed as two Americans were killed earlier in the week. South Vietnamese planes hit six North Vietnamese tanks and four trucks in the Central Highlands as U S casualties rose to two dead and 18 wounded. Officials say the uptick follows intensified patrols ahead of President Nixon's Feb 21 visit to Beijing. Last week saw five American deaths and 22 wounded, bringing total U S deaths since Jan 1, 1961 to 45,644.
