State-Sponsored Terror: British and American Black Ops in Iraq
#4
A Special Forces SFC, speaking to me about the movie "Apocalypse Now" told me:
A Special Forces "A" Team was sent into the Cau Mau Peninsula area of South Vietnam to work with a leader - a Catholic Priest named Father Hoa - to train Catholic men as Civilian Irreegular Defense Group (CIDG) fighters and drive the Viet Cong completely out of the Cau Mau Peninsula It was similar to my being sent in to An Phu to command a force of Buddhist Hoa Haos to drive the Viet Cong out of An Phu District. This SFC told me that the team was ordered out by the CIA - the same as my team was ordered out in 1966 (as written in my book "Expendable Elite." The big difference was that all of the team but the leader did abandon their mission and their Catholic CIDG. The Commander stayed and "they" sent two other Green Berets in and killed the CO. In my case - all my men stayed with me, not wanting to abandon the Hoa Haos. The CIA sent an ARVN Regiment to kill all of us in my SF Camp (over 400 men). The rest of the story is history - proven in Federal Court.

Former Green Beret In Vietnam Wins Federal Libel Case
Financed By Special Forces Association (SFA)


SFA officials caught with their dirty fingers in the 'assassination cookie jar' as jury found former Colonel in Special Forces told the truth in tell-all book exposing CIA-backed assassination attempts and U.S. government policy that would permit the killing of its own and allied soldiers during the Vietnam War.
5 Feb 2006

BY GREG SZMANSKI

Col. "Dangerous" Dan Marvin, once asked to assassinate a military officer at Bethesda Naval Hospital holding damaging pictures of the JFK autopsy, has "stuck it big time" to the SFA and our government's covert operations' policies that permit total disregard of International Treaties and the Geneva Conventions with a recent federal court victory this week revealing hit squads and assassinations are accepted military policy, Col. Marvin fought off a long and costly legal battle for libel concerning statements made in his controversial 2003 book, Expendable Elite - One Soldier's Journey Into Covert Warfare."

After hearing evidence, the jury quickly decided in Col Marvin's favor after only deliberating two hours, coming back with a decision that essentially quashed any attempts by the Plaintiffs or the SFA in calling him a liar by what was printed in his book.

With a recent federal court victory this week revealing hit squads and assassinations are accepted military policy, Col. Marvin fought off a long and costly legal battle for libel concerning statements made in his controversial 2003 book, The Expendable Elite.

After hearing evidence, the jury quickly decided in Col Marvin's favor after only deliberating two hours, coming back with a decision that essentially quashed any attempts by the Pentagon in calling him a liar by what was printed in his book.

"The most difficult part of the whole trial was that someone of strong influence appeared to have intimidated some of my men to lie on the stand about what really happened in Vietnam," said Col. Marvin this week on Greg Szymanski's radio show, The Investigative Journal, where he emphasized the importance of the trial verdict, saying it was "an ultimate victory for the truth and for the American people."

"In 1988 I sent copies of the first manuscript to those of my men who I had located. After reading the draft manuscript, Strait and Sirois set about to make their own audio tapes in which they tell of recalling their time with me in An Phu and sending them to me. I also called Raymond Johnson some years later and sending him a copy of the manuscript. Raymond called and I taped the telephone conversation so as to have the truth of what was said - which he verified later in court. The tape recordings were played to the jury and they believed I was telling the truth and not fabricating anything as the court contended."

The saddest moment of the trial, according to Col. Marvin, came when one his former men of Camp A-424 in An Phu, John Strait, took the stand, and apparently perjuring himself, saying the tapes were fabrications and the incident reported in the book where Col. Marvin talked about saving his life from a mortar blast was also not true.

"I had talked to John's wife when I found out my men were being coerced by someone to lie and she told me I couldn't talk to John anymore otherwise they would lose their military pension," said Col. Marvin. "The incident about saving his life also was, of course, true and it saddened me deeply to hear him on the stand."

Col. Marvin in his book tells how he uncovered the fact that the Johnson administration was permitting the shipment of weapons and ammunition to the enemy in their safe-havens in Cambodia. It was as if the enemy during the Vietnam War on the shores of the Mekong Cong Delta

He further accused the Pentagon and President Lyndon Johnson of slaughtering many innocent American soldiers in furtherance of a hidden policy to keep the war going at any cost with the apparent intent of losing, not winning the war.

Col. Marvin's trial centered on this warmongering policy as it related to the centerpiece of the book, a CIA mission which Col. Marvin would organize and train to kill Cambodian Crown Prince Norodum Sihanouk and make it appear as having been done by the Communists.

In the book, Col. Marvin recounts the CIA request from their agent Mackem that would ask him to organize an assassination ambush team that would enter Cambodia and to kill the Prince:

"We want you to take care of it, 'Dangerous,' because we believe you can get the job done. We've been asked to terminate Prince Sihanouk.Your job will be to bring about his death and make it appear to have been done by the Viet Cong," the CIA agent told Col. Marvin.

Col. Marvin recalls the mission came from the "highest authority" and although he accepted, it came with an important stipulation as Col. Marvin demanded an end to the enemy's safe haven's just inside the Cambodian borders and the end to the needless killing of American GI's.

However, when Col Marvin's demands were ignored, he then refused to carry out the Prince Sihanouk hit, causing the American government to then turn on Col. Marvin.

"The CIA or the Company, as we called them, then dispatched an ARVN regiment to kill me and my men for retribution for standing up against the CIA," said Col. Marvin. "Our own government turned on us and would have killed all of us if it wasn't for the dramatic rescue by ARVN Lt. Gen. Quang Van Dang of eight American Green Berets, including myself and hundreds of South Vietnamese who were fighting with us. Gen. Van Dang got wind of the hit squad and basically saved our lives. He is a heroic, brave an honorable man and there is much, much more to his story.

"In 1989 I learned General Dang had been exiled to Canada, living in poverty as a dishwasher in a poor section of Montreal. After the disrupted the CIA hit on our unit, tour government put out a smear campaign, not wanting him to tell the truth and saying he was a drug lord. It just wasn't true and I tried for 10 months to go through diplomatic channels to get him into this country, but nothing worked.

"Finally, I wrote President George H. W. Bush, saying I would never stop trying to get Van Dang into the U.S. until I was dead or the Lord came to take me. But What I did was slip a little piece of pink paper in the letter saying, 'I am intimately familiar with you involvement in the CIA prior to the date you admitted.' And after that it wasn't more than two weeks that the authority came down to allow Dang in the county.

"So I get ready to go to Montreal, Quebec to get General Dang in a rented U-haul and bring him over the Canadian border in 1989. Two days before I was to leave, I get a call from a friend in the CIA, saying I and Dang were being set up for a Company hit below the border so I'd better watch out."

Colonel Marvin has no proof of just who ordered the hit, but someone obviously had, and it was up to him to see to it that General Dang was in safe hands. "I alerted Congressman Matthew McHugh, my New York Congressman, that there was going to blood on the border if he didn't do something and I advised McHugh that there were four State Troopers standing by to maintain good order. I had obtained four NY State Response team volunteers of four state troopers who would follow me and Dang in unmarked cars loaded with assault weapons," recalled Col. Marvin. "The warning to the Senator worked and Marvin was told by his office that "the safest place in the world for General Dang would be with me coming across the border. The day I brought Dang through customs everything went smooth and I even noticed all the cars pulled over to the side of the road a couple miles above and below the border checkpoint so as it to make it smooth sailing from there. He has always been an honorable man and he and his wife, in their 70's now, are still living happily in California."

Besides the struggle to vindicate Gen. Dang's good name, Col. Marvin's struggle to publish his book was just as difficult.

He first tried to go public with his manuscript almost 20 years ago when he said "he found the Lord" and was no longer afraid of being whacked by military assassins who were trained in the same manner he was by CIA and SF instructors at Fort Bragg's
Special Warfare Center.

After he gathered the inner strength to publish the truth, it took him more than 15 years and 120 rejections from publishers to finally get The Expendable Elite published in 2003 by truth-publisher Kris Millegan.

"I was just about to give up when I met Kris," said Marvin. "I want to say he has stood by me all the way, even when he didn't have to, during the lawsuit. My lawyer told him he could have backed out since I had the sole copyright, but Kris stayed with me even in the face of bankruptcy from the legal bills.

Although victorious in court, Col. Marvin and Millegan remain hundreds of thousands in debt, and are now hoping to sell books in order to avert bankruptcy.

"Remember, the truth will make you free and the Lord will provide," said Col. Marvin.

The federal libel lawsuit, ending last Monday, was officially filed by the plaintiffs who are members of the Special Forces Association against Col. Marvin, a group he said it corrupted, bank rolled and used as a front-plaintiff by the CIA and Pentagon.

Tim Bates, who followed the trial closely had this to say about the use of the fraternal organization as a plaintiff against Col. Marvin: "It is a fact that was brought out in court that the Special Forces Association financed the entire lawsuit against Col. Marvin and Mr. Millegan One can only wonder why this association would get involved in a personal legal battle that has nothing to do with a fraternal organization. I wonder how many members know how much of their dues went to fund this fight. The letters from the Special Forces Association (SFA) to Millegan stated they, SFA, had hard evidence to prove the book was nothing but lies. We can only imagine if the evidence presented in court was all they had . I also wonder if the members of the SFA agreed to the spending of their dues for this lawsuit that had to cost in excess of $100,000. With the truth coming out in court, maybe the SFA will get the truth and decide to go in a new direction with new leadership. I would hope Col. Marvin receives an apology in THE DROP, an SFA quarterly publication, but I won't hold my breath."

The End
LTC Daniel Marvin, US Army (Ret'd)
