The World : Cambodia Factions to Unite

The two non-communist elements of the Cambodian resistance announced that they will form a joint military command to direct their guerrilla war against Vietnamese occupation forces. The Khmer People’s National Liberation Front and the forces of Prince Norodom Sihanouk appointed a committee to study a command structure and to name a single commander for the forces, which will conduct coordinated operations but maintain distinct units. Spokesmen for the two groups said in Bangkok that there is no plan to bring the third resistance element, the Communist Khmer Rouge, under the joint command.
