Cambodian Troops Push to Reopen Highway 2 South of Phnom Penh
Cambodian forces met stiff resistance Sunday while aiming to reopen 20 miles of Highway 2 south of Phnom Penh. Government spokesmen said seven North Vietnamese were killed in a Saturday ambush, with 15 Cambodian soldiers wounded in a clash 25 miles south. Three battalions press south to link with units advancing from Takeo as Highway 2 and 3 remain cut and infiltration routes toward the Kiri Rom plateau. In Saigon, U S Command reported no major ground engagements, but a helicopter with three crewmen was missing, likely shot down. U S troop strength in Vietnam fell to 378,900, with further reductions planned to 344,000 by year end. In Laos, progovernment forces seized a key position southwest of the Plain of Jars, boosting defenses for the dry season.
