During June MARKET T3E patrol unite continued to maintain - -high levels of effectiveness and routine activ.:ty. Generallyxceelent weather conditions throughout the month favored a

high level of indigenous junk and sampan traffic along the coastand in the harbors. The development of late afternoon rain squallsfollowed by gusty winds with choppy seas during the late evening andnight in the northern patrol sectors did reduce the density of fish-ing activity in that area. Improvements in the enforcement ofrestricted areas by Vietnamese authorities has contributed to theeffectiveness of KUHET TIME operations in some areas although manyviolations continue to occur.

The results of June MARKET TIME activity include the detectionof 93,543 Junks ard sampans. Of these 46,737 were inspected and 23,768were boardad. During these boardings, 1#286 suspicious persons weredetained including 9 Viet Cong suspects. There were also 1,184 steelhulled vessels detected transiting MARKET Tfl(E areas during the month,all of which were determined to be on innocent passage.

MARKET TMi{ units also participated in 18 ground operations byproviding exiltration/infiltration patrols and naval gunfire support,In additio-n, 334 naval gunfire missions were carried out for plannedharas=ment and interdiction, targets of opportunity, and in responseto 30 hostile fire incidents.
