Whisky Tango Foxtrot Quotes

“The last time the Chinese came, they stayed a thousand years. The French are foreigners. They are weak. Colonialism is dying. The white man is finished in Asia.

“Ho Chi Minh worked for American intelligence in Indochina from 1943 through 1945. Specifically, the Office of Strategic Services, predecessor of the Central Intelligence Agency, trained and armed Ho Chi Minh’s Viet Minh guerrillas in the jungles of northern Vietnam to fight the Japanese. Ho went to work organizing a broad front of patriots of all ages and types, peasants, workers, merchants and soldiers, to drive both the Japanese and French out of Vietnam.”
