White House confirms 27 Americans dead in Laos skirmishes
White House acknowledges 27 U.S. casualties in Laos since June 1962, including Capt. Joseph K. Bush Jr. killed by North Vietnamese ground fire. The figure ties to Nixon's Laos report and references broader losses among airmen in the eight year covert conflict. The disclosure raises questions about the administration's stated limits on ground combat.
