At the beginning of the quarter the 141st Regiment was
believed to be functioning as security for the 7th NVA headquarters in the
Fishhook. The 209th Regiment was identified southwest of the Fishhook in an
attack on Landing Zone Phyllis and in attacks on convoys
in the area, while the 165th Regiment remained in the vicinity of Minh Thanh. During
MAy the 209th Regiment moved eastward from northeastern War Zone C to a
position southeast of An Loc. From its assumed sanctuary in the Fishhook, the
141st Regiment began offensive operations with an attack on the village of Minh
Due southwest of An Loc on 23 May where it lost 50 men. The
141st Regiment was identified again on 24 May in a contact with the 1st
US Infantry Division southwest of An Loc costing the enemy 96 killed. [264] *
