High Court To Study Secrets ss Allies Seize Fire Base Fire Base Fuller Clashes Near DMZ
South Vietnamese troops clashed with North Vietnamese forces around Fire Base Fuller as allied bombers and gunships pounded the area. The North seized Fuller Thursday but withdrew to avoid heavy artillery, while South Vietnamese reinforcements seek and destroy mortar positions. Army spokesmen say they may reoccupy Fuller if mortar threats are eliminated. The lull follows broader DMZ activity and hints at a possible North Vietnamese dry season offensive aimed at coastal lowlands and elections.
