Collection/Finding Aid Item Number: 0440000000
The William Colby Collection consists of material collected by Mr. Colby during his tenure in Vietnam as a member of the US embassy and of CORDS (Civil Operations and Revolutionary Development Support) and after his duty as Director of the CIA. This is a period from approximately 1960 to 1972 that resumes again in the mid-1980s to the early 1990s. The material generally reflects Mr. Colby's responsibilities in Vietnam, American policy and the pacification programs. Therefore, the collection is divided into 7 sections; American Foreign Policy consists of various papers and publications by individuals and companies. The Communists includes FBIS (Foreign Broadcasting Information Service) reports and bound materials concerned with the North Vietnamese and their guerilla allies in South Vietnam. Covert Operations primarily contains articles and papers on the CIA. Insurgency, Counter-Insurgency and the Phoenix program discusses the US suppression of guerilla forces through papers and documents published by government ‘think tanks’. Pacification, a program with which Mr. Colby was highly involved, consists mainly of government documents and pamphlets as well as drafts of articles written by Mr. Colby. “Vietnamization” is a small section composed of articles, papers and a few government documents. The General files may also prove informative as it includes a wide range of topics from Vietnamese culture to relief programs.
In July 1999, the Honorable Sally A. Shelton-Colby donated an additional two boxes of material to the Archive and have been added as Box 6 and 7 to the collection.

Douglas Pike Collection: Unit 03 - POW/MIA Issues (220) Finding Aid
Collection/Finding Aid Item Number: 2200000000
Contains information from all sides regarding prisoner interments, treatment in the camps, repatriation, prisoner testimony, sighting reports, and data on the resolution of the Prisoners of War (POW)/Missing in Action (MIA) issue, both during and after the war. While the main focus is on American POW/MIA's, there are also materials on North Vietnamese, Viet Cong, and South Vietnamese prisoners. The materials date from 1945-1993 with the bulk from 1966-1978.

Most of the materials are described as either General Literature (e.g., reports, official accounts, and live sighting statements produced by U.S. government agencies) or Clippings from newspapers and magazines. Congressional hearings, committee reports and research requests on the subject of POW's began during the conflict and are represented here through 1993. The Department of Defense, Defense Intelligence Agency, and Central Intelligence Agency produced papers on POW's and MIA's and sanitized sighting reports can be found throughout the materials. Also included is the 15-volume "Uncorrelated Information Relating to Missing Americans in Southeast Asia" report published by the Department of Defense in December 1978. Topics include recovering personnel, POW camps, gravesites, and crash sites. In the 1980's, when the POW/MIA issue again fell under public scrutiny, U.S. government agencies released reports and short letters in response to charges made by the press or POW/MIA groups. Much of the material by U.S. government agencies during the war consisted of bulletins produced by JUSPAO (Joint U.S. Public Affairs Office), USIA (U.S. Information Agency), USIS (U.S. Information Service), and FBIS (Foreign Broadcast Information Service) attacking the treatment of American POW's. The North Vietnamese countered these claims with their own newspaper and radio reports on the conditions of the POW's, many of which have been translated and transcribed.

After the war, the focus of government's information agencies shifted to other areas and it fell to civilian groups such as the National League of Families of American Prisoners and the Missing in South East Asia to keep public attention on the POW/MIA issue. These groups circulated newsletters designed to bring awareness of the POW/MIA issue to the public to build pressure on Congress to stay involved. Topics covered include early release of prisoners by the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese, conditions of the prisoners, peace talks, 1970 Son Tay POW Camp rescue attempt, Operation Homecoming in 1973 (i.e., repatriation of U.S. POWs from North Vietnamese prisons), the return of POW PFC Bobby Garwood in 1979, reports of sightings of living POW's left behind, and POW/MIA hoaxes in the 1980s-90s.
