Two Days of Heavy Fighting Across Vietnam
Allied patrols killed more than 150 viet cong and captured about 300 in two days of broad sweeps. The U S 1st Cavalry advanced through the Central Highlands in Operation Masher aided by South Korean units, facing little resistance as Viet Cong misery was mauled in the South. U S warplanes flew 450 missions over two days destroying about 30 structures and sinking 19 sampans smuggling men and supplies.
