SUBJECT:
THE MILITARY SITUATION IN"SOUTH VIETNAM
Some 80 large-caliber rockets were fired at the Bien
Hoa Airbase on October 30 and 31. A few aircraft were
destroyed and damaged, but there were few casualties.
The most intense ground fighting continues south of
Hue where South Vietnamese units have still not recaptured
Mo Tau and Bong mountains. The regional commander has
ordered these -highground positions taken before the coming
heavy rains make it impossible, but some of `his subor-
dinates feel that additional help will be needed to accom-
plish this task.
