Saigon

Alternate Titles

Saigon: A Buddhist youth (R), already in the grasp of a Vietnamese riot policeman, cringes as another policeman raises his stick to strike the boy late 5/25 here, during a clash between police and a small group of teenagers. The city of Saigon was virtually turned into an armed camp 5/25, as South Vietnamese combat troops poured into the streets, wearing gas masks, and dispersed any group of persons they encountered.
