Largest PW group assails Nixon policies
The National League of Families of American Prisoners and Missing in Southeast Asia, representing PW families, denounced Nixon administration policy on Vietnamization for failing to secure prisoner releases. Members planned a face-to-face meeting with Nixon and pressed for accounting of MIAs, while a separate protest delivered a letter to the White House. Admiral Zumwalt urged that renewed military action be directed at stopping the Communist offensive to aid prisoner release.
