Abstract:
North Vietnam continued to expand and diversify the military and logistics capabilities throughout the country, especially in the areas free of the bombing. A major transshipment point has been confirmed just North of the 19th parallel. Bai Thuong airfield has been partially paved in recent weeks, improving its all-weather capabilities. The Thanh Hoa power plant is being repaired, the first sign of such activity South of the 20th parallel since the bombing halt
