bushmaster11,

You are absolutely correct in your comment. He even admitted to giving the Russians what they needed in regards to codes and what teams were where.

What many non-SOG members have to understand too is that in the communist states, Vietnam was a family affair. You had Russians, Chinese, North Koreans, East Germans, and Cubans. All of which trained North Vietnam its "Counter Recon Teams" against SOG. They also supplied weapons, nurses, doctors, medicines, advisors, and all other type of specialties.

There were also sightings of Russian airplanes and helicopters appearing in the skies over Laos. Some would land on a small airstrip, drop supplies, or shuffle the NVA around in helicopters. The chinese also had airplanes as well. There were times when Russian donated MiG-17s would fly over in Laos possibly taking pictures of certain sites or gathering more intell.
