The action began Thursday in the jungle hills north of Qui Nhon. There was no U.S. confirma- tion of the high communist ca- sualty figure claimed by the South Vietnamese. Only South Vietnamese forces were engaged in the fighting, which raged around the district town of Bong Son, just east of the U.S, Army's Ist Cavalry Di- vision's positions at the An Khe] ! valley. The Bong Son area was the scene of heavy fighting last February when Viet Cong units closed in on the central coast and cut off several district towns im: Binh Dinh province. ACTION FLARES In recent months Binh Dinh province has been fairly quiet. The regimental - sized action that ranged along a 20-mile- front came as a surprise to U.S. advisers in Qui Nhon. A Viet Cong regiment numbers roughly 1,000 to 1,500 men, The Viet Cong first hit the outpost before dark, and then overran it in the first light of morning. Late Thursday, regular South Vietnamese army units and rangers headed south to the smashed post. These units were ambushed early today. Combined U.S. and South Vietnamese air sorties during the action numbered 58, a US. spokesman said. A U.S. Air -Worce F-100 was shot down orth of Bong Son but the pilot ejected and was picked up by helicopter. Another furious and bloody battle with well-entrenched Viet "Cong forces was taking place about 30 miles northwest of Sai- gon.
