U S Bombers Hammer North Vietnam Near Ripcord
American fighter bombers blasted positions around fire base Ripcord as U S forces abandoned the base after heavy losses. B 52s attacked base camps and depots nearby while patrols operated from four other fire bases in the area. In Cambodia Viet Cong and North Vietnamese forces intensified mortar attacks on Prey Veng Province and Laos troops reinforced Khong Island to counter infiltrations along the Mekong River. The Mekong remains a vital supply route for North Vietnamese forces.

Air Support for Korea Anticipated
The United States plans to stabilize its air defense of South Korea while reducing ground troops this year. About 20,000 of the 60,000 U S personnel in Korea may withdraw, with aircraft shifts from U S bases to longer-term Korea assignments to bolster defenses. The move may not increase total U S warplanes in Korea, which total around 140 aircraft, including 18 F4D Phantoms already based there.
