Operation Pigfat

  • ... that General Vang Pao's belief in an ancestral dream prevented Operation Pigfat guerrillas from landing on top of enemy troops?
  • Inadvertent reuse of QPQ. New valid QPQ in progress.Georgejdorner (talk) 18:26, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment: By 1968, the long-running secretive Laotian Civil War had been subordinated to the larger adjacent Vietnam War. Nevertheless, the Vietnamese communists established the largest concentration of their troops outside their borders in northeastern Laos. General Vang Pao attempted a preemptive spoiling attack against the communists, using his Hmong guerrillas as light infantry. The result was disastrous, despite his saving dream of lurking hazards.
