About the Author

Once a consultant to the Administrator of the UN Development Programme and Flight Attendant for Arrow Air, Saul M. Montes-Bradley II went on to become General Manager for AER Airlines and eventually Director and General Manager of Aeroposta Airlines, the first privately owned major carrier in Argentina since the 1950s. Back in the US, he then spent 17 years in Wall Street and is now a genealogist and researcher living with his family in Virginia.
For nearly thirty years, he has wondered if there would ever be a serious investigation of the disaster at Gander, only to see how the willful blindness that marred the initial investigation continues to guide a misguided policy that has only enabled and strengthened Islamic National Socialist movements in the Middle East and around the world.
Montes-Bradley is the author of five extensive genealogies of New England families with branches around the world; two reference books on the Dissident cemeteries in Buenos Aires, Argentina; one of comparative religion and two of early Spanish history and the Conquest of America; and is a recognized lecturer and political analyst with appearances in media outlets in North and South America.

From the Back Cover

"Arrow Air flight R1285JW was chartered under contract with the Department of Defense to ferry troops from the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO), established in 1982 to guarantee the peace treaty between Israel and Egypt and headquartered at Rome, with two bases in the Sinai Peninsula, the South base at Sharm-el-Sheik, a small town a little over 300 miles southeast of Cairo, and a North base at el-Arish, a hamlet near the Gaza strip. For nearly two years, we had been doing flights to and from there, but this one would be different from the beginning."
