William Rogers, who was under-secretary of state for economic affairs in the mid-1970s

Carter years = 1976 to 1980

Iranian hostage crisis that was so successfully solved by the state department of mr carter.

Yep, those are definitely the guys we should be talking to. (/sarcasm)

A William Rogers was Nixon's first
Sec of St prior to Kissinger. He
was a Nixon friend from CA. I do
remember THAT William Rogers.

Could it be the same man? If so,
he'd be way up in years. But I
doubt it, if he was an undersec
during Carter. Wouldn't add up.

Anybody else remember Nixon's
William Rogers???
