Hall claims American foreign legion formed to counter terrorism
Sam Hall, brother of Rep Tony Hall, says a Pentagon backed "Phoenix Battalion" of 540 members formed in 1984 as an American foreign legion. He says it operated abroad as a counter-terrorist force, was later disbanded, and that he was the last remaining member. He describes training in Israel and counter-terrorist work in several countries.
