Of particular interest was the information about the mysterious "Raoul" and the implication that the US Army Military Intelligence may of had some input into this tragedy. I was drafted in 1971 and opted to enter the US Army Military Intel group. I completed my intell training at Ft Huachuca, AZ and my first assignment was Vietnam. I was assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 5th MI Group which was located in Bien Hua Airport, Vietnam. At that time, the Battalion Executive Officer (XO) was a MAJ Raul Macius who was a hispanic Army officer. I was subsequently assigned to Lai Khe which was about 35 miles north of Saigon. I spent 10 months in Vietnam and was there for the 1972 Easter Offensive. I was then assigned to the US Army Intel Center, Fort Holabird, MD where I once again ran into MAJ Raul Macius. Whether there is any connection I don't know but it makes for interesting reading. MAJ Macius was already in his 30's when I met him in Vietnam.

We had the some of the same resources then and the same people to make it happen...the problem is we just didn't have the HEART and those that did is dead today.

I just think its really sad that people hate so much that they would got to the extremes to kill someone as passionate and driven to help and heal a nation. I just think ( in my opinion) that our goverment is so corrupt and cover what they want up and just give us just enough information to keep us passified.They say James Earl Ray killed Martn Luther King but what was his motive? He never talked about Martin Luther King in his letters diary. He was a bank robber for god sakes. If he did I think the goverment paid him to do it.

Have you thought about writing a book to dispel the non-truths in other books and to bring attention to the issues in those documents that remain unresolved? Its good that you are collecting these historic documents so they do not get lost or destroyed. I hope you can complete your collection on what is one of the key events in the last century. <a href="http://anniekatec.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Annie Kate</a> Birmingham AL Mr.Hughes,
