Nixon Plans on Wallace and Vietnam Nato Focus
Nixon assessed third party candidate George C Wallace as polling 12 to 15 percent versus current 20 plus. He blamed Humphrey’s campaign for Wallace not dropping. He spoke on Europe and NATO on CBS radio, urging partners to meet pre Czech crisis defense goals. He noted Army and Marine personnel dominate Vietnam manpower, with 80 percent of 40,500 servicemen there. Turnover at 50,000 monthly strains key officers and NCOs. Air Force second tours rise. Navy expects no involuntary second tours this year after last July’s return of 230 Navy seabees.
