First Saigon rocket attack since May 12
The U.S. Command says Saigon endured its first rocket strike since May 12 with three missiles and four wounded. An accidental slingload from a U.S. Marine helicopter damaged a hamlet 16 miles south of Da Nang, destroying 22 houses and injuring three civilians as the investigation continues. Five American helicopters were shot down over the weekend, with four Americans killed and 11 wounded, while U.S. troop strength fell to 408,600 last week, the lowest since January 1967, with a planned cut to 384,000 by mid October.
