Henry Kissinger and the Vietnam War Khuong Huu Dieu
Henry Kissinger and the Vietnam War Khuong Huu Dieu Secret Meteoric Rise to Power and Fame Henry Kissinger and his friend Fritz Kraemer. Kissinger being sworn in as Secretary of State by Chief Justice Warren Burger, Why in my memoirs do I have a sub chapter on Henry Kissinger, one of the world’s greatest Secretaries of State and a celebrity? Simply because Kissinger’s foreign policy and actions turned my life upside down in 1975, from a middle class engineer in Saigon to a dispossessed and depressed refugee in Marine Camp Pendleton in California. He has changed drastically not only my life but also the life of millions of Vietnamese and Americans. In search for the truth about Henry Kissinger’s actions, I wish my readers will not consider me a bitter vengeful South Vietnamese American or a bad loser in the Vietnam War. On the contrary, I acknowledge that Kissinger’s diplomatic action resulted in my rebirth in the land of the free, a break through unique in my life time! It even gave me an opportunity to write about the truth of his deeds during the Vietnam War. My fact findings came from the declassified top secret documents of the CIA and the NSC (National Security Council.) Kissinger was born Heinz Alfred Kissinger in Fürth, Bavaria, Germany in 1923 during the Weimar Republic to a family of German Jews. In 1938, fleeing Nazi persecution, his family moved to New York. He enrolled in the City College of New York, studying accounting. His studies were interrupted in early 1943, when he was drafted into the U.S. -

The US Army Air Forces in WWII
DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE HEADQUARTERS UNITED STATES AIR FORCE Air Force Historical Studies Office 28 June 2011 Errata Sheet for the Air Force History and Museum Program publication: With Courage: the United States Army Air Forces in WWII, 1994, by Bernard C. Nalty, John F. Shiner, and George M. Watson. Page 215 Correct: Second Lieutenant Lloyd D. Hughes To: Second Lieutenant Lloyd H. Hughes Page 218 Correct Lieutenant Hughes To: Second Lieutenant Lloyd H. Hughes Page 357 Correct Hughes, Lloyd D., 215, 218 To: Hughes, Lloyd H., 215, 218 Foreword In the last decade of the twentieth century, the United States Air Force commemorates two significant benchmarks in its heritage. The first is the occasion for the publication of this book, a tribute to the men and women who served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War 11. The four years between 1991 and 1995 mark the fiftieth anniversary cycle of events in which the nation raised and trained an air armada and com- mitted it to operations on a scale unknown to that time. With Courage: U.S.Army Air Forces in World War ZZ retells the story of sacrifice, valor, and achievements in air campaigns against tough, determined adversaries. It describes the development of a uniquely American doctrine for the application of air power against an opponent's key industries and centers of national life, a doctrine whose legacy today is the Global Reach - Global Power strategic planning framework of the modern U.S. Air Force. The narrative integrates aspects of strategic intelligence, logistics, technology, and leadership to offer a full yet concise account of the contributions of American air power to victory in that war. -
