Once a Jedburgh Always a Jedburgh

摘要

At an academic conference at the University of Texas in 1977 I gained an insight into William Colby's impassive personality. As the featured speaker, Colby was sitting by himself on the stage waiting to be introduced. The lecture hall was filled, with several student protesters brandishing placards denouncing the former Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) and creator/director of the Central Intelligence Agency's controversial Phoenix program during the Vietnam War. Suddenly, a group of angry demonstrators approached the stage, prompting the local police and Texas Rangers to mobilize against them.
