Tonkin incident doubts raise over Maddox Turner Joy attack
Senator Fulbright accused Defense Secretary McNamara of suppressing information suggesting the Maddox and Turner Joy were not attacked on August 4, 1964 in the Gulf of Tonkin. He said the Navy inquiry did not confirm a will-o-the-wisp attack and urged full public disclosure to counter McNamara's statements.
