30 Vietnamese War Vets Killed in Bus Crash

[Guest guest]

HANOI, Vietnam - Thirty Vietnamese war

veterans and a driver were killed in a bus crash Thursday while en route to

celebrate the 30th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, police said.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The bus had rounded a

curve on the old Ho Chi Minh trail — which has been converted into a

highway — about 7:30 a.m., and plummeted about 70 yards down a mountain

in Kon Tum province, about 90 miles south of Danang, said A Tri, a district

police chief.

Only two of the 33

people aboard survived, he said.

The veterans, including

14 women, were aged 60-70 and had fought for Vietnam's independence from the French and later to force an American

withdrawal from the former South Vietnam during the war, he said. They were all from one neighborhood in Hanoi.

Tri said 29 people died

at the scene, while two others died en route to a hospital.
