No U.S. Troops
, Cambodia Will De
Its Own Fighting
By RAY CROMLEY
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON (NEA)
Take it as gospel when President Nixon says he isn't
going to use 1 S. ground troops in the Cambodian war.
This is only partly due to American public opinion,
though that certainly is a factor.
The plain and simple fact is that the United States has
at last learned that native people tight better when they're
running their own wars and must depend on their own
men (with U.S air, sea and dollar support).
.This is a lesson Mao T se-tung has taught for a long
time—to anyone who would listen.
He refused to put Chinese troops in Vietnam (though
lie did put in labor units and some advisers).
Through Lin Piao, he publicly warned Ho Chi Minh that
putting a heavy load of North Vietnamese troops in the
south might lose him II war. And this may turn out to
be the trulli.
Like Ho Chi Minh and Mao, the United States had to
learn this lesson the hard way. In three wars in Southeast
Asia.
Take Laos. When U S. aid was heavy and Americans
had a major hand in running the show, they complained
vigorously that Lao troops would run at the rumor of
North Vietnamese forces around the next bend. This was
all too frequently true.
But when the American forces left, the Lao did not
collapse. Slowly, erratically and sometimes frustratingly,
they began to claw their way upward as a fighting force.
Not all units. But some. They are no longer pushovers.
Take Vietnam, where the i nited States began by Amer-
icanizing the war, only to find the Vietnamese (often by
necessity) began to leave the fighting to us. But we began
to learn that where the South Vietnamese had to fight
they could. And at Tet 1968 we land they) learned that
they would, when the chips were down. As American
troops leave we’re learning that the South Vietnamese
are becoming a fighting force. In part, this is due to a
steady upgradin ■ of equipment, officers and training. But
a chunk of the new spirit comes from the realization that
this is going to be their war.
And lastly, Cambodia. The Cambodians were on their
own (as ground forces) from the beginning, except for
U.S. and South Vietnamese diversionary attacks on V iet
Cong-North Vietnamese buses and some other excursions
by the South V Vietnamese forces. The Cambodians had no
experience in war these many years. The small army was
expanded with raw, inexperienced recruits at an incredi-
ble rate. These virtually untrained ■ men were thrown
green into battle.
And they have done incredibly" well against the
hardened veterans the North Vietnamese and VC have
thrown against them. They’re still on their feet long after
military analysts have counted them down and out.
The thing the United States has learned in this war is
that men will light for their homes when it's them facing
the invader. They may not fight expertly. But when the
crunch comes they will fight bravely.

gical shock which the fall of the
Cambodian capital would have
on morale among the South
Vietnamese and native forces
operating in that country — if
the Communists chose seriously
to try to capture the city.
At the same time, officials
left little doubt that U.S.-
supported military missions
would continue energetically
throughout Cambodia even if
the capital fell.
Defense Secretary Melvin R
Laird has outlined quite specifi-
cally the administration inten-
tion to use extensive air power
in Cambodia while holding back
on introduction of any Ameri-
can ground troops there.
Other high administration
officials acknowledged that they
were disturbed at the wide
attention given Laird’s re-
marks, plus charges by critics
of the administrations recent
Cambodia actions that the
executive branch had changed
American policy in Indochina
by exceeding the intent of
Congress which wrote a ban on
ground combat activity by U.S
troops in Cambodia.
President Nixon in June
created a widespread impres-
sion that the use of air power
in Cambodia would be directed
primarily against infiltration of
men and supplies from North
Vietnam southwards.
Administration officials now
are concerned over the possibi-
lity of new restrictive legisla-
tion being passed by Congress.
The administration contends
that the greatly expanded
American aerial operations in
Cambodia are vital to the
■ Vietnamization" program in
South Vietnam and continuing
American troop withdrawals
At the State Department
other officials were concerned
that inevitably more American
pilots would fall into Commu-
nisi hands, aggravating the war
prisoner problem.
Officials speculated that any
pilots captured in Cambodia
likely would be transferred to
prison camps in North Viet-
nam.
