Thanks for all the rants and raves........

Bill was a little different in the eyes of some but he was a good guy, knew him for many years.

Never saw him kill anyone in the past 20 years or so.

So, would just like to share recommending either of the books by Warner.

I agree that Warner's book on Laos is a must read, ranking up there with Alfred McCoy's opus of "Politics of Heroin". A first person account from one the the more interesting primary western players in the Lao saga is Doc Weldon's "Tragedy in Paradise" which I use to see in the book stores in Thailand. There are also some interviews to be found online with Bill Lair, another country boy who went too native for the CIA, he had actually married a Thai woman and spoke Thai, and ended up driving trucks back in Texas.
