Nothing wrong with that girl in war zone report
AP Special Correspondent Hugh A. Mulligan describes Captain Mike McDermott in Vietnam's Thunder Road near Highway 18. Amid artillery and helicopter strikes, McDermott insists there is nothing wrong with Raquel Welch as a symbol of morale while ARVN artillery and advancing U S forces push toward An Loc and Fire Base No Name. The piece notes Route 13 through rubber plantations and the vast Me kong Delta division moving to relieve An Loc, reflecting the war’s harsh realities and a rubber road map of Indochina.
