Lets just say that many of things we did in nam we did ( i mean we didnt do) with the able assistance of the Hmong ( i mean without). Due to all the help they did not provide us we had to bring them here after the war to insure their survival.
Many of the most debated and denied ops we ran were with the assistance of these men...i mean was without them
Lets just say if we had not brought them with us they have been inclined to give interviews to people we didnt want them talking to.
The best advice i can give you, unless you dont want to have your illusions shattered about America is read BOHICA By Scott Barnes.
The Hmong were heavily involved in the San Toi mission and many other P.O.W. rescue missions. The Hmong also are the people who can tie the US government to drug smuggling ...get this...through the people supposedly in charge of bringing home the P.O.W.s. The book is about 8 inches thick and about half of it is govt documents that prove the case. Look into the assasination of Col Nick Rowe in 1982. Col Rowe was a Green Beret, he spent longer in captivity and escaped (5 years) than any other American serviceman. The col returned to nam to rescue his men, the american govt tried to stop him, when they couldnt, they offered to help...at the last minute the Cols hand picked team was replaced by an american supplied Hmong team...long story short, the col didnt trust his new team and cancled the jump while airborne. He was pretty smart but not bullet proof, the NEXT day he was assasinated by machine gun toting bandits in the PI.
