N. Vietnamese Blew Bugles
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) SAIGON, July 19.
United States Marines cut down a mass “human wave” attack by North Vietnamese troops charging with bugles blowing in the hostile northwest corner of South Vietnam.
The Communist death toll in the five-day-old offensive soared to 181 dead, not counting those killed in the human wave charge. United States spokesmen reported today. Marine jet fighter-bombers zoomed in and dumped napalm and anti-personnel bombs on the massed Communists, the report said.
