This is a special report broadcast the same day as it was recorded, from Pacifica's Saigon correspondent Judy Coburn. Coburn reports on the military situation in "I" Corps, as seen through interviews with members of Ripcord Company. This special report was broadcast immediately following the 7:00 p.m. news on WBAI on Friday, August 1, 1970, pushing the scheduled broadcasting for the evening. Note: interviews with soldiers in field have poor sound quality due to noise present at time of recording.
