U.S. Mistake in Laos
Guerrillas'
Punch Is Lost
By RAY CROMLEY
WASHINGTON (NEAI
A long-time friend who has been operating for years
as a guerrilla in northern Laos has sent very bad news
indeed.
The Meo underground, developed with care and finesse,
has been shattered. Much of this was of U.S. doing, al
though unintentional.
Not long ago. top American specialists in guerrilla war
had great hopes for the underground operations in north
ern Laos. It was not like Vietnam, where we have at
tempted to fight a guerrilla war with conventional armies.
In Laos, the underground war was fought as guerrilla
wars should be.
We had turned the tables on the North Vietnamese.
The Meo guerrillas in Laos were almost impossible for
Hanoi’s armies to pick off.
Meo irregulars made life increasingly difficult for the
invaders. They were using Mao Tse-tung-Ho Chi Minh
tactics—and using them effectively.
Gradually, a small Meo group here and another there
were given guns and told to defend themselves and their
homes against anyone. This they did with enthusiasm.
The countryside in the north and gradually to the south
became dotted with these underground irregulars. When
the enemy advanced, they scattered and infiltrated to
attack him in the rear. When the enemy retreated, they
advanced. They raised havoc in the enemy’s back yard
and pinpricked him to exasperation. They slowed his
drives and imperiled his long supply lines. The North
Vietnamese soldier knew no peace.
This program progressed nicely. The Meo are excel
lent fighters. Like the effective Viet Cong guerrillas of
the early 19605, they were civilians by day and fighters
by night'.
The very lack of Meo organization, their crude weapons
and their lack of uniforms were strengths. Thev had no
complicated supply lines to guard. The North Vietnamese
could not pin them down. If a unit was trapped, the loss
in men was small.
Then someone in Washington began to get ideas. These
loyal guerrillas should have more supplies, better equip
ment. more effective weapons. They should have organi
zation, be built into military units.
