Cork holding action at Khe Sanh amid Việt Nam siege
5,000 U S Marines anchor a narrow defense around Khe Sanh as North Vietnamese forces press toward the base. About 4,000 enemy regulars threaten from hills and valleys, with past week skirmishes signaling a possible major offensive. The surrounding terrain complicates defense along ridges and ravines near the DMZ. Marine casualties last May totaled 138 killed and 397 wounded in fighting on Hill 881 South, Hill 361, and adjacent positions.
