Vietnam DMZ push loosens Hanoi plans in Da Nang
A South Vietnamese drive around the A Shau Valley disrupted Hanoi's simultaneity plan for attacks toward Hue and the DMZ. An American officer said the March operation near the A Shan Valley spoiled coordination, making two-pronged assaults less likely. He noted weather weakens air power but bombs land more effectively as the season improves while enemy supply lines falter. Casualties cited include about 1,000 South Vietnamese losses in the DMZ push and an implied higher enemy toll, with Camp Carroll overrun and troops dispersing to friendly units.
