Congressional testimony disclosed Gen John P McConnell and Adm T H Moorer argued a swift sharp air strike against 94 North Vietnamese targets could have paralyzed the enemy and aided U S forces in South Vietnam.

Sharpe says U S winning war slowly in Vietnam

Admiral Ulysses S Grant Sharpe told the Transpor tation and Logistics Forum the Vietnam war is being won slowly but steadily.
