Conflicting Reports. What little direct reporting there is from North Viet Nam is sketchy and often contradictory. A Japanese businessman, who has made many trips to Hanoi during the past 14 years, returned home recently with the impression that the North Vietnamese capital was cleaner and more sprightly than he had ever found it. According to his tourist's-eye view, cafes and beauty shops were full of customers, food was plentiful and moderately priced, and Hanoi's women had blossomed forth for spring in new pink blouses.

Demolition Teams. Weathered German pillboxes, part of Hitler's supposedly impenetrable "Atlantic Wall," are everywhere. In Ver-sur-Mer, at one end of the beach promenade, tourists stroll past a blockhouse that now serves as a signal station for fishing boats. A few blockhouses elsewhere have been converted into homes, chicken coops and storage sheds. All along the coast, demolition teams still roam the countryside searching for unexploded ammunition; every so often, when a big enough haul is accumulated, it is blown up on Omaha after the tide has come in.

His visible calm, however, belied the subsurface disputes that have been shaking NASA for the past few months. Until his angry departure last month, Haney, in his role as NASA's public affairs officer, was the man caught in the middle. On one side were the engineers and astronauts, who were determined to maintain as much privacy as possible during the flights. On the other was the press, equally determined to know all about the space shots...
