Have stated incorrectly more than once, that Alan Dulles, who had been terminated almost two years earlier, could be found at the girls school
at the time of JFK's death.
I had been mistaken, it was Camp Peary also referred to as "The Farm".

Read this yesterday, came here to put it up. It's a shame he's had to publish this himself, makes it too easy for others to attack and pick apart in these days where supposition and conjecture mean more than a mans word and impressive credentials.

I feel you.

Tell Farouk I said Hey.
I have a sizable bag full of similar books, but in military green covers, advertising that they're supposedly water-proof. But having inadvertently tested them in damp gear, I hope our troops haven't had to rely too heavily on them in monsoon season.

Being 10,000 miles from Aunt Betty's apple pie is one thing. Being 10,000 miles from that pie, AND being wet, dirty and cold is entirely unacceptable.

Their chemical-based beverage and MRE food packet heater/warmer envelopes are pretty impressive, though. I have a stash of them, too. :)

Aerial intelligence collection platforms have played a critical role in US national security from the earliest beginnings of aviation. CIA's 1960s OXCART Program and its use of U-2s are examples of collection innovations that have kept US leaders informed about adversaries' capabilities and intentions. Despite their success, however, use of these platforms carried significant risks and repercussions, including detection and even pilot loss, such as the downing of the U-2 flown by Francis Gary Powers in 1960. Ever-evolving research by the CIA led to the development concept of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as collection platforms. An innovative Agency program in the 1960s codenamed Aquiline was the very first to test this concept. Based initially on the study of flight characteristics of birds, Aquiline was envisioned as a long-range vehicle that could safely and stealthily provide a window into denied areas such as the Soviet Union through photography and other capabilities, and would even support in-place agent operations. While it never became operational, the concept proved invaluable as a forerunner to today's multi-capability UAVs.
