Flak Curtain Shields Haiphong Aboard Oriskany Carrier
North Viet Nam is throwing a heavy flak barrage along its coast, described by pilots aboard the carrier Oriskany as probably the most intensive antiaircraft fire of the war. Reports say 329 U.S. planes have been lost over North Vietnam, with a record seven shot down in one day. Pilots note radar-guided and manually operated guns, constant flak before hitting the beach, and evasive maneuvers to avoid missiles. The barrage is seen as highly effective and increasingly dangerous to air missions over Haiphong area.

Experts say this polycentric trend reflects rising nationalism and demands for personal progress, yet does not ease the broader U.S. confrontation. Fidel Castro’s restrained stance and Moscow’s discipline are noted as possibly signaling tension within world communism.
