Witness says troop infiltration higher than official estimates
In a deposition in Westmoreland versus CBS, retiredLt. Gen. Westmoreland says enemy infiltration in South Vietnam was higher than official figures, though his superiors may have had better data. He recalls decoding 20,000–30,000 infiltrators monthly in 1967 and notes later memos and classified data shaped knowledge of the Tet threat. Col. John Stewart adds that NSA data revealed a shift in enemy strategy and that sensitive intel was tightly controlled within Westmoreland’s staff.
