Allied warplanes backed up the ground force by striking nearly 40 times with bombs and napalm. The Vietnamese airborne troops pushed south from behind the Chu Pong Mountain where the 1st Cavalry both dealt and suffered the war's heaviest death toll in a single action this week. U.S.

cavalrymen moved up to join the Vietnamese. A VIETNAMESE spokesman said Saturday night that 200 Communist dead had been counted in the new fighting that raged only three miles from the Cambodian frontier and 20 miles west of Plei Me. They said many more Communist bodies were expected to be found. Prior to the new fighting, the known Communist death toll for the Chu Pong battle and fighting in the nearby la Drang Valley was given as 1,770 by body count. The figure did not include the casualties in Saturday's battle.

Westmoreland said American and Vietnamese troops had rolled up an' "unprecedented victory" over the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Communists in the current Central Highlands fighting.
