False raid reports tied to Lavelle affair emerge
An Air Force sergeant says over 200 personnel aided in falsifying after action reports to conceal unauthorized North Vietnam raids. He asserts Udorn Thailand crews and officers repeatedly misreported missions as protective reaction, with orders allegedly flowing from high command. Senate hearings may test his claims against Gen Abrams and Lavelle’s leadership.
