Wheeler warns on Vietnamization pace in Saigon
Gen. Earle Wheeler, chair of the Joint Chiefs, said U S forces must stay in South Vietnam for some time and should not rush Vietnamization. He supported Thieu’s aim to withdraw most U S troops by next year but warned against hard deadlines. Wheeler cited progress like turning over Delta air control and half riverine vessels to the Vietnamese, with future withdrawals at President Nixon’s discretion.
