...able to finger SAM radar signals, the three others armed with rockets, notably the 10-ft. Shrike, which homes in on radar radiations. Last week Iron Handle flights hit ten SAM installations out of the total estimated 100 sites in North Viet Nam. Though the SAMs have had little direct success-bringing down 14 U.S. planes out of 296 launchings in the year since the first was fired -they do aid the enemy in another respect.

Bill Maitland says, "I myself am more packed with spite and twitching with revenge than anyone I know of. I actually often, frequently, daily want to see people die for their errors. I wish to kill them myself, to throw the switch with my own fist." There...
