Viet Cong sabotage hits Da Nang rail link and Bien Hoa blast
Reports from Vietnamese sources say elephants ferry heavy gear from North Vietnam to Viet Cong bases. A 12 1/2 mile south of Da Nang, a concrete railroad bridge was blown up, with two Popular Forces guarding a nearby larger bridge. Rail service south of Da Nang is hampered by repeated Viet Cong sabotage. The U S Air Force reports 18 killed and 9 missing or presumed dead, 103 wounded, as Bien Hoa Air Base explosions continue. Lt Gen William Martin arrived to head an investigation into the Bien Hoa blasts, initially deemed accidental. Prince Norodom Sihanouk warned peace talks fail while bombing persists, and North Vietnamese reconnaissance flights are accused of spying.
