Drug traffic cited as reason for withdrawal of Viet troops
A two man congressional study mission says up to 18 percent of GIs in Vietnam are heroin addicts and that all U.S. troops should be withdrawn if drug flows cannot be stopped. The report cites high officials in South Vietnam and Laos as involved in heroin smuggling and urges international cooperation. The authors propose urinalysis programs and civil commitment for addicts, warning of a vast domestic crisis if in-country traffic continues.
