Nixon scaling back Vietnam presence may be illusory
George Esper reports that thousands of U S air power and Marines remain committed to supporting Vietnam from bases and carriers outside the country. The 7th Fleet numbers 13 000 aboard ships off Vietnam with 25 000 Marines ready. In Thailand 82 200 U S troops operate, while CIA Air America conducts covert Laos and Cambodia missions. Analysts expect continued air and naval presence post Vietnamization, with bases in Thailand and carrier air strikes likely beyond 1972.
