Johnson plans recapture of initiative in Vietnam
Washington reports that the Johnson administration reviews the war strategy without retreat. President Johnson supports Rusk's “from A Few” approach, recouping military, political, and psychological setbacks while resisting a negotiated settlement. The plan centers on Westmoreland requesting up to 206,000 more troops and a staged study by a cabinet committee led by Defense Secretary Clifford.
