...While it is claimed that all American combat troops have been withdrawn from the IV Corps in the Mekong Delta, briefing officers fail to point out that 23,000 U.S. support troops and advisers remain. That figure is only 15% less than the total estimated Communist forces in the area-hardly a level indicating substantial self-sufficiency on the part of the South Vietnamese...
...still too early to predict the outcome of perhaps the most important topic of all-the reorganization of Czechoslovakia's 1,500,000-member Communist Party (in a population of 14 million). According to present plans, all membership cards will be withdrawn and, after a gigantic review of every member's behavior during the Dubček era, new ones issued. Who will get the new cards?

GROUND FORCES will number about 50,000 (if the military men get their way). The U.S. is likely to keep two airmobile divisions, probably the 1st Cavalry and 101st Airborne, each with about 450 helicopters, on hand after the other fighting units have been withdrawn. These units will serve as "fire brigades," taking advantage of their mobility to rush to any location where it appears that the ARVN (Army of Viet Nam) is in trouble. Even then, they are meant to take no part in the main fighting. Instead, they will free regular ARVN or militia units for combat...
