Sam Dillon's news reportage from Latin America has been rewarded with numerous honors, including two Pulitzer prizes. He began his journalism career in 1981, when he reported on the civil war in El Salvador for the Associated Press. In 1987, Dillon was part of a team that won the Pulitzer for a series of stories on the Iran-Contra scandal, a situation in which the administration of U.S. president Ronald Reagan was accused of illegal arms dealings and negotiating for hostages. Dillon won his second Pulitzer for a series of articles on the effects of drug-related corruption in Mexico. Dillon's book Comandos: The CIA and Nicaragua's Contra Rebels drew on his knowledge of the civil war in El Salvador, which pitted the contra rebels against the Sandinista government. Comandos shows some positive points about the contras as well as detailing their record of human-rights abuses, and also reveals the complicity of the Central Intelligence Agency in their activities. Dillon focuses his account on Comandante Johnson, a contra leader who attempted to stop the abuses that were so commonplace among the rebel forces. This claims to be the first book to tell the rebel army's full story, capturing the sweep of the Nicaraguan civil war, a was financed by the United States. The story unfolds through the experiences of Luis Fley, a young Sandinista who broke with the revolution and went into exile where he joined the Contra army. Derived from a Kirkus review: A much-needed look at the contras, seen from within by Dillon, anchor of the Miami Herald's Pulitzer-winning Iran-contra team. Dillon covers the years 1983-91, centering his report on the experience of Luis Fley, a young Nicaraguan combat officer of distinction. Following up on a torture-death, Fley learns of an ambiguous figure named Isaac Blake, meets with contra leader Enrique Bermudez, discovers the extent of the abuse, foils a cover-up, and puts the `CIA-backed contra intelligence chief [Blake] before a tribunal of young commanders on charges of torture and murder.' Working from a variety of sources including ex-CIA men, Dillon lays out the scale of American operations in Nicaragua (and Honduras and El Salvador) as they `utterly transformed every aspect of the rebel force, creating an army that rivaled the armed forces of Honduras in size.with sophisticated weaponry no.armies in South America possessed.' Supplies are ferried in first by jeep, then by rented Hueys and other airlifts; roads for 18-wheelers are built and truck-fleets are rented, an airport is acquired. But it is no longer an indigenous revolt; Bermudez and all the rebel leaders, dependent on the CIA, lose credibility because `behind every contra there's an American.' At the end, Fley returns home to a life of near-poverty, only to see old contra commanders cutting deals and moving into the new Chamorro regime. A fascinating taleâ"laced with corruption and brutality and full of sharp, revealing factsâ"very readable. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].
