Shifting Tactics Mark Guatemala Highlands Battle
The Guatemala highlands war shifts to a new tactic as government troops avoid civilian deaths and win civil support while guerrillas strike civil defense forces. Officials report 1,300 defense groups and movement of villages from guerrilla to pro-government, with 20,000 army troops facing about 3,000 full-time guerrillas and tens of thousands of sympathizers.
