Rescuers Press Toward Helicopter Wreckage Near Da Nang
North Vietnamese troops entrenched in bunkers attacked advancing U S infantrymen near the crash site of a U S helicopter southwest of Da Nang.

Howard Jr. were aboard.

Pentagon to cut more than 100000 troops in coming year
The Pentagon plans a manpower cut over 10 months that may signal big U.S. troop withdrawals from Vietnam though officials say combat withdrawals from Europe and Asia are not intended. Laird aims to replace some U.S. forces with South Vietnamese where possible, with total defense spending trimmed by about $3 billion. The move could leave U.S. strength near 2.3 million by July with about 77 billion budget after Navy ship layups and reduced training. Senator Proxmire calls the cuts too little and too late.
