President Nixon claimed that the leaks of US bombing attacks in Cambodia would be a continuing threat to US Security. In response to these leaks, Nixon hoped to stop future ones. Secret wiretaps were set on at least 13 members of the National Security Council and on at least four newspaper reporters.
President Nixon authorized the "unoffical" B-52 bombings in Lao's and Cambodia. He also authorized (ordered) the US ground offensives in Cambodia in 1970, and the US supportive ground attacks into Lao's in 1971.
President Nixon ordered US Ground Troops into Cambodia on the morning of 01 May 1970. Most of us were out and back into South Vietnam by June 1970.
