Secrets exposed by Boston Globe on Vietnam era covert actions
The Globe reports on a Pentagon study detailing Kennedy era covert actions in North Vietnam and Laos, including agents, air resupply, guerrilla networks, leafleting, and sabotage plans. It notes debates over congressional action, Vietnamization under Johnson, and Taylor’s 1961 recommendation for 80k ground troops with risks outlined. The piece links Tet 1968 to shifts in U.S. strategy and public denial of troop requests.
