The u. S. Military command in vietnam, with his retirement from the cia he went to the Georgetown School foreign service. Hes also founding member, and is the author of a new book the foundations of the cia harry truman, and the origins of a cold war. Rick, come on up. Think you all for coming out when you could be at the Christmas Market across the street. I appreciate that. As vince said ive been with the sea i a for going on 50 years.
