Thanks for reminding us TSgt Joe C. that National Security Council staff member USMC LT Col Oliver North and his secretary, Fawn Hall, begin shredding documents that would have exposed their participation in a range of illegal activities regarding the sale of arms to Iran and the diversion of the proceeds to a rebel Nicaraguan group.
FYI I met Vietnam War veteran LT Col Oliver North a few times in the mid 1990s and got to know him better when he ran for the U.S. Senate. He is an honorable man who got caught up in a double cross. Sometimes the U.S. Government authorized a Black mission and disavowed all knowledge of it if it comes to light.
FYI LTC Orlando Illi MSgt Robert C Aldi Capt Jeff S. CPT Jack Durish SFC Stephen King LTC Stephen C. LTC Ivan Raiklin, Esq. SGT Gregory Lawritson Cpl Craig Marton Maj Bill Smith, Ph.D. Capt Seid Waddell MSgt Danny Hope LTC (Join to see) SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL COL Mikel J. Burroughs

It's a shame that North aka Blue got caught up in that mess. Some believed he could have become a General or with some luck, even the CMC. His men in Nam thought highly of him and he was tactically proficient. I guess it's as they often say that power corrupts and absolute power absolutely corrupts. He found himself as a LtCol inside the inner workings of the NSC and became their "go to guy". Many have questioned his integrity, but I don't think we should question his dedication to the cause at the time. It was only because of a misstep by prosecutors that he avoided jail, but one has to wonder if that was by design. Thanks for sharing.
