Title
More on the 29th. Hoa Tho village complex, USMC 3d Tank Battalion.

Content
[Source didn't have exact day just December 1966]
The activities of Lieutenant Colonel William R. Corson's 3d Tank Battalion in Hoa Tho village complex, on the northern bank of the Cau Do River, provided an excellent example of a coordinated civic action program. In December 1966, the Battalion's civic action team sponsored a farmers' meeting in the hamlet of Phong Bac. The village chief of Hoa Tho and the hamlet chiefs participated in the event, over 80 farmers attended. They discussed raising live stock and a representative from the U.S. Army 29th Civil Affairs Company distributed seed to the farmers. After the meeting, the village chief took the occasion to tell the people of the hamlet about the Marines. He stressed that the Marines were guests of the Government and that they were only trying "to help the Vietnamese people in the struggle for freedom and fight against Communism".
