U.S. abandons Hamburger Hill after costly siege
U.S. forces pull the bulk of troops from Hamburger Hill near Laos after a 10 day battle that left 53 Americans dead and 300 wounded. Officials say main units moved out but troops remain in the area for searches and possible patrols amid criticism from Washington and senators. North Vietnamese fire continues in the valley as U.S. and South Vietnamese forces withdraw to a defensive stance.
