POW Airlift Report Denied by SAS Amid Renewed Talks
Stockholm reports a top secret POW airlift link between SAS and U.S. forces drew denials from SAS and Western officials. NordVietnam peace talks remained linked to troop withdrawal dates. H. Ross Perot surfaced as the lone private figure seeking POW releases amid disputed press claims. In Pleasanton Texas, a nursing home roof collapse forced evacuations after a thunderstorm. About 40 seniors were moved to safety with no injuries. Flooding crept through low areas as the Atascosa River neared capacity and Highway 97 was closed as a precaution.
