Diplomatic compromise is not as satisfying as military victory, but-with all its obvious risks-negotiation could lead to an acceptable end to the war. At a dozen flash points in two decades of cold war, non-Communists and Communists have managed to work out some let-live arrangements. Analogies are dubious because the Vietnamese situation is different from all others; for example, the South Koreans did not have to contend with an internal rebellion, and the Malayan Communists botched their own revolt.

Many of the tents, moreover, are Sears Roebuck's "Ted Williams" models, donated by the U.S. but designed for weekend summer camping...
