Viet Cong Sets Trap Near Crashed B57 Jet
Viet Cong forces laid an elaborate trap near the wreckage of a B57 bomber crash site 35 miles northeast of Saigon. A U S source said trees were felled to hide evidence and miners may have blocked the road. Two U S crewmen were believed dead and ground forces planned to reach the wreckage. Monsoon rains halted air operations while Macapagal pledged U S support in Manila.
