INDOCHINAKRIEG
Heavy fighting for French stronghold in Indochina....The initial Viet Minh onslaught to split the isolated French stronghold, Dien Bien Phu, failed, but bitter fighting is still reported in Indo China. The French have incurred heavy losses on the rebel forces. France's most urgent need there at the moment is aircraft reinforements. Since the violent flare-up the garrison has been receiving replacements, men and material by parachute.....Photo shows: Sorely needed reinforcements arrive. The paratroops were denied the use of two air strips at Dien Bien Phu which were put out of action early in the assault. The troops had to be carefully dropped within the fence perimeter...24th March 1954 (KEYSTONE/UNITED ARCHIVES)
