Furthermore. weand this means the United States and its allieshave the helicopters. the fleets. and by far the greater preponderance of airpower. Nevertheless. our opponents have the initiative. They have fought at times and places of their own choosing. They have taken over much of the countryside and have forced the allies back toward the cities and to small. stakedout areas. They have probably killed off the pacification program. at least for the time being. They have added 500.000 more refugees for us to care for. They have pinned down a large segment of our combat strength at Khe Sanh. The recent Tet offensive. in my judgment. was neither a defeat nor a death rattle for our opponents.
