Find him (and his material/base) and destroy him. This was part of the "body count" war that was established for this new (second to the Korean War) "Limited War." Prior to Vietnam, the doctrine called for the traditional method of "taking ground." We didn't do that in Vietnam, in the beginning we tried it, but the war evolved in "attrition of the enemy" destroy more of them than they can of us, "body counts" were the way of keeping score of how many of the enemy had been slain.
