...troops briefly occupied Tchepone, 25 miles inside Laos and once described as the "throat" of the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Then they pulled back from the deserted town to occupy part of the nearby valley floor and some coyly named fire bases in the surrounding hills ("Sophia," "Liz" and "Lollo" for Actresses Loren, Taylor and Lollobrigida). Hilltop hopping by helicopter, other ARVN forces sought to cut off important enemy supply routes, chiefly Route 914, the last major supply road with a dense cover of foliage.

When a torrid billet-doux she once wrote to Dr. Christiaan Barnard hit the Italian papers, Gina Lollobrigida filed a loud complaint. La Lollo explained that she had written the scorcher in English, hardly her best language; it had then been translated into German by Quick magazine and finally put back into her native tongue by the Italian press.

...comedy that scandalized the Vatican, provoked a near crisis over movie censorship in the Italian government, and brought grievous moments to scrumptious Gina Lollobrigida, who told a Roman judge that during her celebrated "nude" scene she was wearing a flesh-colored coverall. Pending the outcome of charges that Lollo and her codefendants may have perpetrated an immoral exhibition, movie exhibitors everywhere are itching to unreel the evidence.
