Information Information afforded a.frorded b.r by agent agent reports, reports, PW PW interrogations, interrogations, and and documents documents referring referring to to a a Winter-Spring Winter-Spring offensive o.ffensive in generalities generalities are are beginning beginning to to give w~ give way to to more more specific indications specific indications relating relating to to actual actual targets targets in in TJIUA. THUA THIEN THIEN (P) (p) and and QUANG QUANG TRI TRI (p). (P). In In MRTTH MRTTH recent recent information information from from a a wide wide range of range of sources sources indicates indicates that that the the Winter-Spring Winter-Spring offen8ive offensive will will be be targeted targeted against against units units and and positions positions in in the the vicinity vicinity of of QUANG QUANG TRI TRI and and HUE HUE cities. cities. As As an an example example of of this this type type of of information, infonnatlon, an an NVA NVA lieutenant lieutenant possibly possibly from from the the K-IO K-10 Sapper Sapper Battalion, was Battalion, was killed killed near near QUANG QUANG TRI TRI city city on on 15 15 December.

In In addition addition to to these these documents, documents, several several agent agent reports reports have have indicated indicated that that elements elements of of the the 7th 7th Front, Front, to to include include the the K-IO K-10 Sapper Sapper Battalion Battalion and and possibly possibly elements elements of of the the K-8 K-8 and and K-6 K-6 Battalions, Battalions, supported supported by by the the K-32 K-32 artillery artillery battalion, ba.ttalion, were were to to conduct conduct attacks attacks on on QUANG QUANG TRI TRI City City and and other other positions positions in in that that area. area. Several Several PW's PW's and and ralliers ralliers from from the the HUE HUE city city unit unit have have indicated indicated that that their their mission mission was was to to conduct conduct a a reconnaissance reconnaissance of of infiltration infiltration and and attack attack routes routes leading leading into into H~ HUE from from the the northeast northeast and and to to provide provide guides guides for for ,attacking units. attacking units. TheBe These same same personnel personnel reported reported that that the the VC VC did did not not have have units units of of sufficient sufficient strength strength to to conduct conduct the the plarmed planned attacks, attacks, therefore therefore two two to to three three Main Main Force Force units units would would have have to to be be used used if if the the attack attack were were to to be be successful. successful. Possibly related Possib~ related to to this this information information are are further further indications indications provided by interrogation of i~IS provided by interrogation of PW's from from the the C118 ellS Local Local Force Force Company and Company and the the K-4 K-4 Battalion Battalion of of the the 5th 5th NVA NVA Regiment.

Turning Turning from from MRTTH MRTTH to to the the B-5 B-5 Front, the Front, the indications indications of of impending impending attacks attacks are are less less specific, specific, but but there there are are maQy many general general indications indications of of heightened heightened activit,r. activity. Aerial Aerial observers, observers, observation observation posts, and posts, and surveillance surveillance e~pment equipment report report an an increased increased n~ber number of of sightings sightings within within the the DMZ, DMZ, parti.cularly particularly in in the the eastern eastern portion. portion.
