Cambodian troops punched through Highway 4 roadblocks 15 miles from Phnom Penh easing but not ending supply woes. Heavy rains swelled the Mekong allowing river convoys to move with less danger while floods worsened city shortages and prices for refugees.
North Vietnam’s Vietnam News Agency reports a Soviet built MIG 4324 with 14 red stars on its fuselage has 96 combat missions and 140.8 aircraft shot down. Six pilots from the Sao-Do unit are hailed as honored heroes of the people's armed forces.
The Pentagon says it attaches little significance to reports that North Vietnamese troops are fighting Cambodian insurgents in Cambodia. Spokesman Jerry Friedheim said such clashes happen from time to time and Defense Secretary Schlesinger is not prepared to assign major meaning to news accounts. He noted a strong racial dislike between Cambodians and Vietnamese and cautioned against overreaction unless the pattern becomes regular.
Pentagon officials say North Vietnam transformed the former U S base at Khe Sanh into a major military complex with new roads, storage and repair facilities, and an air defense shield around the site. Analysts note a western road network and revitalized airfield, while stating no clear reason for discussing a fresh airpower request amid uncertain Congressional approval.
South Vietnamese command reports 21 civilians killed and 35 wounded in shellings on several hamlets and towns. In Mekong Delta clashes near a government position, 22 Communists and 26 government soldiers died with 4 troops wounded. Tam Quan suffered a major attack with 70 rockets and mortars killing seven civilians and wounding two. Additional civilian deaths occurred in nearby hamlets and a mining incident near Chau Dox province.
