the events leading up to the assassination of Diem and his brother

on November 2, 1963.

«At thou at Langley) and possibly Macteorge Bundy."

by interviewing or taking testimony from then Chief of Station Davedy

I would appreciate your comments and some guidelines on format for

future drafts, if appropriate.
