Jets Strike Hanoi and Viet Cong Manifesto Drops
Fighter bombers hit Hanoi breaking a three week lull, targeting the Doumer bridge and linking rail lines from Red China as F105 Thunderjets from Thailand shadowed the action. In Saigon a House member was killed at home amid Viet Cong threats. Major clashes erupted along the demilitarized zone with heavy artillery, while a United Nations dispute over a Viet Cong manifesto surfaced as U S forces log 113,073 casualties since 1961 with 15,459 killed and 868 missing.
