Pentagon cites prisoner increases as morale signal in Vietnam
Pentagon experts see rising prisoner of war numbers in Vietnam as a potential morale indicator for Communist forces. They caution against long term conclusions, but note October prisoner captures broke records and may reflect greater Allied effectiveness. The report highlights 1,444 prisoners in two weeks and a total of 7,488 by mid October, with possible future rates of 2,500 to 3,000 monthly if the trend continues.
