Planes and patrols amid Vietnam fighting report
From Washington AP military writer Fred Hoffman reports that U S forces will respect Cambodian territory and likely avoid Laos troop deployments. Instead, aerial raids by helicopter transported troops are expected to slow the North Vietnamese Ho Chi Minh Trail influx, with estimates of 4500 fighters monthly. A two seat F4C Phantom crashed north of Saigon, killing both crew. In a rubber plantation clash, a 1st Division battalion searched for three missing Americans and encountered a large Viet Cong group. American casualties were light to moderate, with enemy losses reported around 23 dead and Vietnamese snipers found tied in trees at the site.
