Just a snapshot
Hey Jack
BG (ARVN) Tran Dinh Tho, Pacification (link to .pdf) discusses the overall Pacification programs from the South Vietnamese viewpoint.
Compare his figures for VC "ralliers" with VCI "deserters" in the Phoenix post above.
Pacification Stats 1963-1973.jpg
E.g., 47K ralliers in 1969 in the overall Pacification program vs only 4.8K VCI "deserters" included in Phoenix. And, the average annual ralliers work out to about 15K - about 2 military cadres and troops to 1 political cadres and troops. So, these various data sources must be handled with some care.
I'll take a look at a few more.
Regards
Mike
