The Pentagon's program went by the name of Military Assistance Command,
Vietnam, Studies and Observation Group (or simply SOG). Despite his implicit
approval of SOG, Shultz deserves credit for revealing officially-sanctioned
SOG programs, some of which deserve to be prosecuted as war crimes. In one
project, North Vietnamese POWs were released back into North Vietnam with
incriminating evidence secretly planted on them, so that they would look
like American agents. In another tactic, 1,000 North Vietnamese fishermen
were kidnapped and brought to an island that they were told was a liberated
territory in North Vietnam, and then blindfolded and brought home. The hope
was that they would spread the word that there was a resistance movement
underway. Fortunately, the antiwar movement made Washington increasingly
skittish, and official programs such as these were eventually phased out.
