Hardcover Book Operation Chaos By Matthew Sweet Vietnam War CIA History

An untold Cold War story: how the CIA tried to infiltrate a radical group of U.S. military deserters, a tale that leads from a bizarre political cult to the heart of the Washington establishment Stockholm, 1968. A thousand American deserters & draft-resisters are arriving to escape the war in Vietnam. They're young, they're radical & they want to start a revolution. Some of them want to take the fight to America. The Swedes treat them like pop stars--but the CIA is determined to stop all that. It's a job for the deep-cover men of Operation Chaos & their allies--agents who know how to infiltrate organizations & destroy them from inside. Within months, the GIs have turned their fire on one another. Then the interrogations begin--to discover who among them has been brainwashed, Manchurian Candidate-style, to assassinate their leaders.
