The Constitutionalists launch a second and final attempt to expand the boundaries of their stronghold in the Dominican Republic. In the bloodiest battle of the U.S. intervention, the rebels begin their attack on US outposts. Using the greatest firepower yet, they use tear gas grenades, .50-caliber machine guns, 20 mm guns, mortars, rocket launchers, and tank fire. The 1st battalions of the U.S. 505th and 508th Infantry quickly go on the offensive. (Two days of fighting costs the U.S. five killed and 31 wounded in action. The OAS forces, consisting of a large number of Brazilians and whose orders are to remain at their defenses, count five wounded. The Constitutionalists claim 67 dead and 165 wounded.)

This month, Polaroid introduces its Swinger camera, otherwise known as the Model 20 Land Camera. It is the first inexpensive instant camera, selling at $19.95 (or less, for the Model 15, a flashless version). The Polaroid Swinger is targeted toward teens and young adults, with a catchy rock-and-roll jingle in its TV commercials. The camera's aperture/shutter speed is adjusted with a red knob until the word "YES" is displayed in the viewfinder to indicate sufficient light for proper exposure; otherwise one can use the built-in flashbulb socket and reflector for flash photos. It can be swung from the wrist using its wriststrap; hence the name Swinger. It can take only black-and-white photos and it uses Polaroid 20-Series roll film. After a photo is taken, the photographer pulls the exposed but undeveloped photo from the camera until the film stops; it remains attached to the camera. The photographer counts 60 seconds after taking the picture, while holding the camera still, to allow the photograph to self-develop, then "zips off" the printed photo from the camera and negative/backing paper. Immediately afterward, the photographer coats the developed photo with a clear stopping/fixing substance to prevent it from overdeveloping and from fading.  The 2-1/8" by 2-7/8" photos have a black reverse side, which prohibits writing legibly on the backs with blue or black ink. People who buy the Swinger camera use only two rolls of film with it on average. Some people do not like the inconvenience of having to keep the camera still while a photo is developing (otherwise the photo may turn out streaky), the inconvenience of having to coat each newly developed photo, the inability of the camera to take color photos, and the small size and overall mediocre quality of the photos. There is also a model 3000, known as Big Swinger, which uses Polaroid 100-Series pack film instead of roll film. The Swinger camera is discontinued in 1970, but as of that year it is Polaroid's best-selling product ever.
