James Dozier

from Now I've Heard Everything · host Bill Thompson

Fprty years ago this weekend  a U.S. Army general who was stationed at a NATO facility in Italy was kidnapped by a Marxist terrorist group known as the Red Brigades. General James Dozier spent the next 42 days in captivity, before a dramatic rescue. And, as you're about to hear in this interview, Dozier's rescue by Italian special forces actually help break the back of the Red Brigades. I met General Dozier and his wife Judy several years later.  They wrote a book about that harrowing episode.
