American helicopter strafes Vietnamese village named for Nolting
A US helicopter accidentally strafed a strategic hamlet 200 miles north of Saigon, killing a child and wounding four. The hamlet Don Tin had just been named for outgoing Ambassador Frederick Nolting Jr. The naming, planned before the incident, drew embarrassment as villagers showed cool reception and fears it would invite guerrilla attack. The helicopter was reportedly delivering supplies and the ambassador’s party did not know of the strike. The United States backed South Vietnam in its war against the Viet Cong.
