Joint chiefs air views on withdrawal from Korea
Army Chief of Staff Bernard Rogers testified that the Joint Chiefs of Staff favor a slower U S troop withdrawal from Korea than President Carter's five year plan. The chiefs back a phased partial reduction of 7 000 Army spaces in Korea through Sept 30 1982 and no major ground force cuts beyond already programmed units, while Carter seeks 33 000 fewer troops.

Narong Kittikachorn Returns Amid Thai News Blackout
Thai military leaders kept a news blackout on Col Narong Kittikachorn's return to Bangkok last Sunday. Narong, son of ex-Premier Thanom Kittikachorn, reportedly came for his father's birthday and his grandfather’s funeral, though authorities hint at another motive behind his reappearance. In Mexico City a power blackout left about a quarter of the city dark for 90 minutes due to a main-line failure.
