A Terrorist's Mirror

The Terrorist's Mirror is a semi-biographical nonfiction story of a Chief Warrant Officer of the US Army taking his wife on a trip through a free fire zone in Vietnam as bait for an ambush. The plan for the trap was conceived by the Commander of a 1st Calvary Division tanks battalion, and approved by the Commanding General of the Saigon Special Operations and Bill Colby CIA Operations. The success of the trap depended upon complete secrecy, and needed to appear logical and genuine to the North Vietnamese. There was one Chief Warrant Officer and his wife who lived on the Thai Firebase Bearcat. He had flown with the Thai Marine Police in Bangkok and was working with the South Vietnamese Minister of Information, Mr. Cat Lee. He had also worked off and on in the shadows during WW-II, the Korean War, and now flew snatch & grab missions for the CIA in Vietnam. President Lincoln had it right when he said, "Any Congressman who takes action to destroy the moral of a soldier during war time should be charged as a traitor, deported or hanged."
