CIA Connection[edit]

The 21st TAS was used by the CIA during the Vietnam War, flying silver C-130's for transport of armanents and ammunition (called "hard rice") and logistical supplies (rice, cows, chickens, pigs, etc.) for supporting guerrillas in Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, etc. This should be mentioned. Since this is CIA stuff, RS might be difficult to come by. The 21st helped relieve the siege at Khe Sanh in 1968. 63.192.100.70 (talk) 08:12, 5 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
