Casca 14: the Phoenix
“He would be brought to them in a couple of days. Right now the arrangements were being made for a chopper pickup. As for his Vietnamese friend, even though he applied all the pressure he could, Van was not available. He was on an operation and couldn't be released at this time. However LLDB Headquarters in Saigon had promised him that as soon as he finished his mission they would assign him to Colonel Tomlin and the Phoenix Project.
Colonel Ho van Tuyen was not waiting for anyone. He gave... the orders for the Ke’ sat Nhan to go into an operational mode immediately. Borrowing a card from the British, when they'd used the BBC to broadcast orders to French resistance in World War Two, Ho used the government radio station in Saigon to spread his orders to kill over the length and breadth of South Vietnam. The key phrase was concealed in a normal daily news broadcast which was repeated several times throughout the day.
In one night, three province governors were assassinated, twenty-three village chiefs, two American Intelligence officers and the commander of the Manh Ho Strong Tiger Ranger Battalion, one of South Vietnam's most effective combat elements.MoreLess
