Zach, or anyone with a copy of ''Edward G. Lansdale A Catalog of His Books and a Register of His Papers at the Air University Library, Compiled by Robert B. Lane and Delores R. Bynum, Maxwell Air Force Base, January 1989' or other means, is it known the date of that North photo?

I believe the photo was taken in the 1980s.

This photo was taken in 1986, a year before Lansdale's death. Lansdale was meeting with a group of individuals intent on waging the Cold War in Latin America. Left to right Andy Messing Jr., Executive Director National Defense Council; Lansdale; Medardo Justinano; Major Gen. John Singlaub, US Army (Ret.); Lt. Col. Oliver North USMC (Ret.)

North, a controversial figure in the Iran-Contra scandal of the mid-1980s, described himself as "Lansdalian," and according to the Washington Post, "was already Lansdale-ized when he reached the NSC."

Here is a series of interesting articles on Lucien Conein and "Assassination Techniques." I would think that from working in the ZRJEWEL program he would be very familiar with the latest in TWEP technology.

From the The Milwaukee Journal - Jan 23, 1975:
