L: We have one going right now.
K: A plan is an ARVN movement into Cambodia. Hewill tell you tomorrow.
L: ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
K: He wants that plan in a preliminary form this afternoon.
L: I think these excursions have been worthwhile.
K: You have have that plan to us this afternoon?
L: I think I had better talk to him this afternoon so we are all aboard. The
state of their backgrounder this morning is that we are moving at a rate
of 12, 0000. I want to say we can do 60,000 by election time - - I dont always
want to be the bad
guy
SANX in government. We are ending up with a monthly rate
with the momentum of the program. I want to say we will maintain momentum
but not keep books on the numbers.
K: That's what hxx he wants.
L: Abrams does not feel it would be difficult by 35,000 by the end of Aug.
McCain doesn't but Abrams could live with that. He objected to 50. Hx I used
50 because the President directed my people to put that out.
K: He wants that DMZ strike started.
L: There's not much in supplies in that pass and we would like to wait for
a build up. We can take out the AA but I would like to take it on a day with
a lot of supplies.
K: He is most anxious to show them things might be getting out of control.
L: Today we could do good work with 52's in Laos.
K: Lets.
L: We will hit them tonight. They are good today. This other may be good
tomorrow. I
K: Do that. And the tack-air in Cambodia.
L: That started yesterdayx out there.
K: How deep?
