The history of CIA-sponsored intelligence flights flown over China by Taiwanese pilots is one of the last unexplored frontiers in the history of Cold War aerial intelligence. Drawing upon US and Taiwanese archival documents and oral history interviews with participants, Chris Pocock will discuss the heretofore untold story of the Black Bat Squadron. Intelligence historian and former Wilson Center Public Policy Scholar Mark Stout will provide commentary. (ref: HAPP 20100614)
