    Default Josephine Baker . . .

    . . .in France during WWII, Ex-Pat American women in Manilla, Julia Child (The French Chef) in the OSS. (Old Eagle's post about the 2nd oldest profession set me on this line of thinking)

    You assume they knew she was a hooker. I can take you to a car park on the beach at Netanya and it's pretty damn hard to hell who is a hooker and who isn't. I guess it wasn't much different in those days!

    - The job of the British Army out here is to kill or capture Communist Terrorists in Malaya.
    - If we can double the ratio of kills per contact, we will soon put an end to the shooting in Malaya.

    Default Trujillo Assassination

    The following info on the Trujillo assination in the Dominican Republic came out in an official enquiry and is no longer classified secret squirrel. An excellent book was also written on the case:

    http://www.normangall.com/dominicanr_art2.htm

    I'd also be really interested to get the key dates and assessment details for that subject. I want to take it next year and due to other commitments would like to get as much done as possible over the Christmas break. Private msg might be best.
