...Moscow, U.S. Ambassador Foy Kohler met in the Kremlin with Soviet President Nikolai Podgorny just before a high-level Soviet group headed by Aleksandr Shelepin, the party's No. 2 man, left for Hanoi.

Each was asked to pass on the message that any hostile action by the Viet Cong during the lull would prompt the U.S. to double its bomb loads if and when the raids resumed. North Viet Nam brusquely condemned the lull...
...embassy damage was considerable, with fully 310 windows shattered and the grey facade streaked with reel, blue and black ink. U.S. Ambassador Foy Kohler sent an angry note, charging that police protection had been "grossly inadequate."
