North Vietnamese Overrun Ranger Base in Central Highlands
North Vietnamese troops attacked the Le Minh ranger base 23 miles west of Pleiku, battering the perimeter for five hours and reportedly overrunning the camp. About 400 rangers, including Montagnard tribesmen, defended the outpost nine miles from the Cambodian border before radio contact was lost. Survivors were seen nearby, and the army pledged to retake captured territory as fighting in the central highlands potentially escalates.
