War in Colour

LIFE

Weaponry of flame. Sweeping low across enemy-infested scrubland, U.S. pilot-instructor watches Vietnamese napalm strike. Object of fire bombing is to sear the foliage and flush the enemy into the open. U.S. airmen train Vietnamese to handle T-28 fighter-bombers and lead the Vietnamese to the target, but as advisors they may not drop bombs.
