Article Abstract:

The Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara was unhappy with the air campaigns against North Vietnam in 1956. He started a new tactic of building a barrier across Vietnam, which was later named as the McNamara line that led to the seeding of the Ho Chi Minh Trail by air with 20,000 seismic sensors forming an electronic infiltration barrier.
