I refer of course to one former U. S. Army captain John Joseph McCarthy, Jr., who clandestinely had been trained by, and operated as a trainer within, "Project Cherry's" central mission: the fielding of assassination: teams throughout key regions of Vietnam-war-era Southeast. Asia. For details on his involvement in, and'eventual victimization by, that mission, please visit the Internet web site of: httj. //www fromthewilriot , .c/fr r X11 /1'Z ?
