I got there in just after the following Spring Offensive in which the last of the NLF was pretty much wiped out. I flew in the back of a C-47 with a headset on listening to the NVA radio ops. They all disappeared, killed or went north to avoid getting killed. The radios thenceforward were southern accents and some clear speech because ops were dead and the troops didn't have the codes. It was enlightening. Hà Nội was ordering them to scatter and bury equipment and get back north if possible. After the war General Giáp indicated that Hà Nội was expecting an invasion and Occupation of the north. Instead, of course, we backed off to allow the Communists some R&R to regroup. It was only fair.

Thank you for your service sir, and I will always curse Walter Cronkite for his disservice to you.
