Lyndon Baines Johnson:
How many planes will we lose?
Gen. Earle 'Buzz' Wheeler:
20 to 25.
Lyndon Baines Johnson:
How many casualties?
Gen. Earle 'Buzz' Wheeler:
50.
Robert McNamara, Secretary of Defense:
50 to 300 is my estimate, and if the bombs miss, it can go as high as 12,000, with fifty percent of these civilians and fifty percent of those killed.
Gen. Earle 'Buzz' Wheeler:
Of course, we don't plan these strikes to miss our targets.
Lyndon Baines Johnson:
But you do miss sometimes. And this time you could hit a Russian ship. And the bomber pilot will be a kid from Johnson City, Texas, and that'll be the kid that starts World War III, thank you very much.
