Cease-fire fails as U S bombs Indochina without peace
The United States dropped massive bombs on Indochina for over eight years but failed to secure a cease-fire. In Cambodia, raids by fighter bombers and B52s may have bolstered the government yet sentiment remains grim as 170000 tons failed to end hostilities. In Laos uneasy truce persists while the Ho Chi Minh trail expands. North Vietnamese and allies dominate much of the region despite cease-fire talks.
