The Vietnam war expands in 1967, but there is no evidence that offensive US action is impeding the willingness of Hanoi to continue to fight. China and the Soviet Union send war materiel to aid their cause; and the North seems able to tap into an unlimited supply of manpower.
228,263 American men are drafted in 1967.

11,363 Americans die in Vietnam in 1967.

In 1967, less than half of the country supports LBJ’s war policy.

Lots of comparisons to Saigon this morning.
Here are some data points regarding the two-day evacuation there, on April 29-30, 1975, extracted from a CIA report.
North Vietnamese began their main attack on Saigon on April 27, hitting Saigon for the first time since 1973.
South Vietnam's president's call for a cease-fire/peace talks were rejected. South Vietnamese military leadership left their commands. Many committed suicide.
A group of defecting South Vietnamese Air Force pilots dropped six bombs on the Air Base intended as the major evacuation point. Several U.S. aircraft were destroyed and the runway received heavy damage.
