Viet Cong Killed Near Saigon in Major Battle
AP reports 36 Viet Cong killed by helicopter borne South Vietnamese troops 15 miles from Saigon. Meanwhile 2,500 Marines and rangers push a new offensive into southeastern Cambodia with early success and several U.S. air losses. Casualties include two South Vietnamese dead and three wounded as fighting spreads near Parrot's Beak and the U Minh forest, with a separate Cambodian bridge destroyed on Highway 4 hindering Phnom Penh's land links. A large search for two missing U.S. C128 planes continues, eight days after one disappearance and six Americans aboard.
