Sydney Schandberg knows his stuff. Also let’s not forget that Juan McCain’s friend Kerry got an exclusive for Colliers Intl Real Estate on Vietnam after normalization. Kerry’s realtives own Colliers. They are a huge commercial real estate broker.

After Vietnam - all the scum like McCain, Kerry, Kissenger, Carter wanted it to go away.

6. On November 11, 1992, Dolores Alfond, the sister of missing airman Capt. Victor Apodaca and chair of the National Alliance of Families, an organization of relatives of POW/MIAs, testified at one of the Senate committee's public hearings. She asked for information about data the government had gathered from electronic devices used in a classified program known as PAVE SPIKE. The devices were motion sensors, dropped by air, designed to pick up enemy troop movements. Shaped on one end like a spike with an electronic pod and antenna on top, they were designed to stick in the ground as they fell. Air Force planes would drop them along the Ho Chi Minh trail and other supply routes. The devices, though primarily sensors, also had rescue capabilities. Someone on the ground—a downed airman or a prisoner on a labor gang —could manually enter data into the sensor. All data were regularly collected electronically by US planes flying overhead. Alfond stated, without any challenge or contradiction by the committee, that in 1974, a year after the supposedly complete return of prisoners, the gathered data showed that a person or people had manually entered into the sensors—as US pilots had been trained to do—"no less than 20 authenticator numbers that corresponded exactly to the classified authenticator numbers of 20 US POWs who were lost in Laos." Alfond added, according to the transcript: "This PAVE SPIKE intelligence is seamless, but the committee has not discussed it or released what it knows about PAVE SPIKE."

As much as I can't stand McCain, after having campaigned for him and voted for him, this is a serious problem with this article. Pave Spike was not a thing that was dropped, en masse, into the Vietnamese jungles. It was a target designator that bolted onto the pylons of an F-4.
