Heavy fighting in Sepone Laos as NVA tanks enter front
Reports from UPI describe heavy ground fighting near Sepone in Laos with North Vietnamese tanks moving toward battle lines. US sources say B52 airstrikes killed over 1,000 Communists in 48 hours and that the Laotian operation has killed about 7,000 since it began. South Vietnamese forces reportedly faced supply helicopter difficulties but moved with five to seven days of rations, while three helicopters were shot down in under an hour. The Ho Chi Minh Trail hub near Sepone reportedly fell last weekend with large Communist losses and captured crewmen.
