The World : Viet MIA Offer Reported
Vietnam will turn over to the United States the remains of five people it says are Americans listed as missing in action in the Vietnam War, sources said in Bangkok. “It’s a welcome gesture,” one U.S. source said. Vietnamese sources in the Thai capital said that it could take as long as a month to turn over the remains of the five. In a related development, a U.S. team arrived in southern Laos to search for the remains of 13 American servicemen missing in the crash of an Air Force C-130 transport plane shot down in 1972.
