In this segment of The Past American Century I talked about the famous Brig. General Ed Lansdale.
He was the Y character in the movie JFK.
And infamous for activities in Vietnam and for Operation Mongoose.
Max Boot wrote a new book about him.
In this video I talk about a secret Ed Lansdale power play that has not been talked about – not even by Max Boot.
Like this video so that I know you are there.
My source in this video is this book:
The Secret War Against Hanoi: The Untold Story of Spies, Saboteurs, and Covert Warriors in North Vietnam
