The military were compromised by the Leftwing Secretary of Defense, and the general foreign policy of Secretary Of State Dean Rusk. I tried to get Rusk charged with something, via my friendly Congressman in 1962, over what the Kennedy Administration was doing in the Congo.

Rusk & McNamara were not on our side; rather they were pursuing their own version of a Leftwing Revolutionary ethos, on a a global scale. I deal with this in the Chapters in the Conservative Debate Handbook on Foreign Policy & Democracy In The Third World.

No our career military were indeed honorable men. The Government under JFK & LBJ were not.

What was far worse than SE Asia, was the capitulation to the UN massacre that was carried out by US and Canadian forces in Katanga.

Katanga was a solid democratic province of the Congo, and the backbone of the entire country.
