U S forces mount helicopter strikes along central Viet Nam
U S spokesmen say two helicopters were needed to remove weapons left by Communists as a regiment sized force nearly annihilated the Vietnamese 7th Army in the same area on November 27. U S carrier planes aided a Marine landing 30 miles north of Qui Nhon while 25 Viet Cong were killed and 14 Viet Cong buildings destroyed in other actions on the central coast and near Saigon. U S destroyers shelled suspected Viet Cong areas and a Vesole joined the coast bombardment. U S officials say Cambodia remains a sanctuary for strikes and plan continued helicopter raids to curb North Vietnamese flows, with no new Laos troop deployments expected.
