Combined with other activities within MR IV, this gave the 164th CAG a record KBA count of 1,444 enemy for the month of May 1970. In addition, the capture of 1,396 individual weapons and 269 crew served weapons, 148 tons of ammunitions, 75 tons of rice, and 3 tons of medical supplies did much to disrupt the enemies' logistical facilities and activities.
