Laird sees Viet Namization as path to exit if POWs safe
Secretary Laird said Viet Namization strengthens room for successful negotiations but allows full American withdrawal if talks fail, contingent on POW return and MIAs. He warned of 140,000 North Vietnamese troops in South Vietnam and noted new Soviet ICBM tests and a Sawfly submarine-launched capability. He added 5,000 draftees this year as the all‑volunteer force begins July 1.
