Operation Cleansweep

Operation Cleansweep was a U.S. military initiative during the Vietnam War aimed at removing or destroying weapons, supplies, and equipment that could be used by enemy forces. The goal was to disrupt the Viet Cong's ability to maintain operations and supply lines by clearing out caches of weapons and materials in designated areas. This effort involved systematic searches, inspections, and destruction of identified stockpiles, helping to weaken the enemy's logistical capabilities and support ongoing military strategies in the region.
