Vietnam firefight far from Saigon claims heavy toll

In a major clash near the Binh Son Long Thanh area, South Vietnamese Rangers replaced badly mauled militiamen after 58 killed and 55 wounded in a two day fight with some 250 North Vietnamese and Viet Cong. The battle, aided by U.S. air power, marked the district’s largest action in two years. Cambodian forces repelled a north Vietnamese tank and infantry assault near Kompong Trabek amid a mortar and rocket barrage.
