August 14, 1973 - an angry U.S. Congress stops the bombing of Cambodia
(the u.s. military in the wild west out of control)
;-)

...from Yale University...a map of all the U.S. bomb
sites in Cambodia...about half of Cambodia

http://www.yale.edu/cgp/Walrus_CambodiaBombing_OCT06.pdf

"The failure of the American campaign in Cambodia lay not only in
the civilian death toll during the unprecedented bombing, but also
in its aftermath, when the Khmer Rouge regime rose up from the bomb
craters, with tragic results."
