...look like a mermaid who could not-or did not want to-wriggle out of someone's fishnet. Cole of California has already turned out 200,000 mesh suits and is still far short of meeting the demand. Not even the fact that the suits leave a checkered tan discourages the girls from taking a walk on the wild side...
...better to shoot Viet Cong with, declared Madame Nhu, who knew only too well the uses that the V.C. were making of their own female stalwarts. One such is Kim Loan, a pistol-packing mama commanding a guerrilla company near Saigon, who occasionally slips into the town of Tan An for a hairdo. Other tools are the thousands of fishwives and fruitsellers in the market places of South Viet Nam's cities.

But the company has compiled a fair record of promptness and safety (one crash, in 1962), and its cabin service is noted in the Far East. First-class passengers dine on steaks, French wines and cheeses, served...

Later in the same operation, air-supported South Vietnamese soldiers killed an estimated 255 Viet Cong, whose unit had been spotted along a canal...
