Chiefs Seek 70 000 More Troops For Vietnam War Plan
The Joint Chiefs report supports General Westmoreland’s request for 70 000 additional troops to halt U.S. initiative loss in Vietnam, raising total to about 550 000. Some urge 100 000 to 200 000 more, citing growing enemy strength and rising U.S. casualties. President Johnson has delayed action. Transferring half the West German troops to Vietnam is proposed by experts as a simple solution. A quip notes horses and fathers of month old babies sleep standing up.
