Title
Aerial photo of bombed bridge
Description
Original caption: "Saigon - Before - Air Strikes by Air Force fighter-bombers destroyed a bridge (right-center) recently in North Vietnam's southern Panhandle, some 23 miles north of Mu Gia. But North Vietnamese coolies quickly constructed a ford (top-center) upstream from the demolished bridge and supplies continued to flow across the river." Aerial photography of poor quality. Some craters are in the landscape, in what might be a jungle.
