Kenneth on the Free Thai Movement

Kenneth on the Free Thai Movement

The Free Thai movement developed simultaneously among Thai students in Britain and the United States. It was under the direction of the Thai Legation in Washington and probably under the principal military attachés in Britain. Kenneth explains how this movement was organized and used to infiltrate enemy territory. Kenneth tells of the cave by the beach he knew about in Thailand that he advised the Pentagon to use to store military equipment.
