Marine Corps commander at Da Nang. explained how Marines have learned to fight a totally new kind of warmilitarily and in civic action. The Marines set out to win people as well as territory. They have done both. The foursquare miles have been expanded to 400 square miles under their control. In one village we saw only happy faces. not only of a colony of refugees but of permanent residents there. A few days earlier. villagers several kilometers away had recaptured an escaped Viet Cong prisoner and returned him to custodyan act almost unheard earlier. General Walt has a $300.000 fund. collected by Marine reserves in the U.S. for his civic action program.
