Secret American patrols in Laos ruled legal by Pentagon officials
Pentagon officials say U S led Laos patrols were legal intelligence gathering missions despite bans. The covert units, mostly South Vietnamese with two American escorts, operated 30 months after Congress banned ground combat troops, sometimes engaging North Vietnamese forces. The State Department noted Sihanouk approved raids, though some patrols did encounter enemy forces and casualties.
