I'm just back from Neak Loeung (Prey Veng) where August 6th 1973 American B-52 mistakenly dropped it's 20 ton load on a government-held Mekong river town. At least 137 Cambodians were killed and 268 wounded. No memorial monument and hardly can find people were living this town at that time and remember what's happend. What's happend with the wounded? Maybe the Khmer Rouge killed them or living somewhere else. I saw only one disabled, a landmine victime who injured in 1986. Neak Loeung is a place where there is a huge number of Vietnamese lives about 110km from the border.
