Waves of high altitude B52 bombers conducted a saturation strike just north of the DMZ against the North Vietnamese 341st Division near the 17th Parallel. The raid involved multiple waves two hours apart, with hundreds of thousands of pounds of bombs in a two by two mile target area. The operation followed other war developments including carrier Forrestal joining the 7th Fleet, two US jets lost over North Vietnam, and intensified Viet Cong activity near Saigon.
