American Paratroops In Offensive Position Near Dong Xoai
A battalion of U S Army paratroopers moved into a combat position near Dong Xoai marking the first American offensive in Viet Nam. Five days of fighting around the Dong Xoai area produced about 2 000 casualties with 1 000 South Vietnamese soldiers and 1 000 Communist guerrillas killed. Seven Americans died and 11 are missing with fifteen wounded. US Marines and other units suffered additional casualties as the conflict widens. General Westmoreland warned a continued Communist drive in Phuoc Long could bring US forces into direct clash with enemy troops.
