Nausea Gas Used in Major Viet Cong Offensive
U S forces discharged a large dose of nausea gas over Communist territory to clear the way for three battalions of ground troops. Jets knocked out Soviet missile sites near Haiphong and Hanoi while MiG 17s contested the air. The gas immobilizes troops by violent retching and can cause blurred vision, with no permanent effects. Ground forces then pursued Viet Cong alongside Vietnamese troops in Bong Son coastal area.
