THE DEATH FLIGHT OF LARRY MCDONALD Published in slightly abridged form in Flagpole Magazine, p. 7 (September 3, 2003). Author: Donald E. Wilkes, Jr., Professor of Law, University of Georgia School of Law. Twenty years ago, on Thursday, Sept. 1, 1983, Georgia Congressman Larry McDonald suffered a horrible death when the Boeing 747 airliner he was aboard was shot down by a Soviet fighter intercepter over the Sea of Japan. The 268 other persons on the plane also perished. The airliner, Korean Air Lines Flight 007, on its way to Seoul, South Korea, had twice entered Soviet airspace and was downed as it was about to leave Soviet airspace for the second time. Although many of the specific facts surrounding the shootdown of KAL 007 are unknown or disputed to this day, the violent death of the rabidly anti-Communist McDonald at the hands of the Soviet Union's Air Force appears to be a breathtaking example of the inscrutable workings of human fate and human destiny.

Carter, 100 S. Ct. 533 (1979) (Mem.) DAVID A. GOTrENBORG* I. INTRODUCTION Although the United States Constitution expressly provides how the President may make treaties,1 it is completely silent as to the process by which treaties should be terminated. In Goldwater v. Carter,2 a number of members of Congress sought to have the constitutional question re- garding the proper procedures required for the termination of treaties ju- dicially resolved.3 The suit was filed in response to President Carter's an- nouncement 4 that he was terminating the Mutual Defense Treaty of 1954 with the Republic of China.' Therefore, while the narrower issue was whether the President could unilaterally terminate the Mutual Defense Treaty without first consulting the Congress, the entire separation of powers question as to the extent of permissible congressional involvement in treaty terminations was opened for judicial review.

Oral histories are personal memories shared from the perspective of the narrator. By means of recorded interviews oral history documents collect spoken memories and personal commentaries of historical significance. These interviews are transcribed verbatim and minimally edited for accessibility. Greatest appreciation is gained when one can read an oral history aloud. Oral histories do not follow the standard language usage of the written word. Transcribed interviews are not edited to meet traditional writing standards; they are edited only for clarity and understanding. The hope of oral history is to capture the flavor of the narrator’s speech and convey the narrator’s feelings through the tenor and tempo of speech patterns. An oral history is more than a family tree with names of ancestors and their birth and death dates.
