Project Stargate wasn't just one of those weird 1950s things...it kept going until the mid-90s. Here's a request related to the first #Iraq War. #history #CIA #intelligencehistory

@DianaBolsinger That's very kind of you.

I must say that second book would be immensely valuable! Good grief. I'm intellectually salivating already.

(Not that the first book wouldn't be interesting, but I knew about it already.)

Regarding my perspective, if your introduction needs a page on pre-WWII US liaison, I might have a thought or two. Ping me anytime.

#IntelligenceHistory

@DianaBolsinger Yes! Extraordinarily forthcoming about liaison with Mexico. There’s a couple interesting tidbits about liaison with the Dutch service too. #CIA #IntelligenceHistory

Is anyone aware of any occasions on which #China shot down an American U-2? Have they ever done it with a fighter plane? I know they shot down some U-2s flown by pilots from Taiwan. I'm also aware of this article but there are a number of problems with it. #CIA #USAF #MilitaryHistory #IntelligenceHistory https://www.upi.com/Archives/1987/11/18/China-claims-it-shot-down-U-2s/5392564210000/

This looks like a really strong issue. #IntelligenceHistory

The North American Society for Intelligence History will hold its last #IntelligenceHistory brownbag of the year on Tuesday, December 6, noon to 1PM Eastern. The speaker will be Dr. Cris Matei of the Naval Postgraduate School and her talk is entitled: “Not-So-Secret Secret Police: #Yugoslavia’s Intelligence Apparatus.” #histodons https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dr-cris-matei-not-so-secret-secret-police-yugoslavias-intel-apparatus-registration-397394205767

“On Jan. 24, 1978, a Soviet nuclear satellite called Kosmos 954 re-entered the Earth's atmosphere and exploded over northern Canada…A joint Canadian-American recovery team spent most of the year searching a 124,000 km/sq area. That recovery effort was known as Operation Morning Light.”

New podcast sounds really interesting! The CBC really punches above their weight…they’ve put together some excellent shows.

I think what really makes me excited to tackle the second book project are the things I only notice because of the first. For example, here is Matthew Quester, Postmaster of the English Foreign Posts (about whom I have seen very few documents in England) testifying in a Venetian treason case 🤩 #postalhistory #intelligencehistory

Cool webinar coming up Nov 28 4 - 5:30PM Eastern: "New Scholarship on US #IntelligenceHistory."

Sponsored by the Wilson Center and the American Historical Assoc. #histodons #MilHist https://www.wilsoncenter.org/event/new-scholarship-us-intelligence-history

I feel like there should be an #intelligencehistory hashtag. @ABateman @stevenbwagner Are there other intelligence historians out there at the moment?
