Johnson and Westmoreland pledge tougher Viet Nam effort
President Johnson and Gen. Westmoreland urged higher manpower in Viet Nam after a secret weekend meeting at the LBJ ranch. They warned Hanoi shows continued resolve and that a Communist takeover is not imminent only if the United States and allies stay in the field. The plan calls for increased military requirements, potential US ground action in the Mekong Delta, and no quick victory. Westmoreland then proceeded to Hawaii and the Philippines en route to Saigon, with travel kept confidential to avoid signaling any change in command.
