U S Flies 800 Marines to Thailand Over Mayaguez Crisis
The United States sent 800 Marines to Utapao base in Thailand to back demands for the release of the American freighter Mayaguez seized by Cambodia's Khmer Rouge. Thai Premier Kukrit opposed the move, warning of severed ties if U S troops used Thai soil. Pentagon reports said Cambodian gunboats fired on U S surveillance planes. Coral Sea and supporting ships moved toward Koh Tang as Kissinger and Ford weighed options.
