Just thought you would like to know that Col. Rowe was not on his way to the Embassy when he was shot, but to the JUSMAG headquarters. I know for sure. Mrs. James N. Rowe
The source who wished to remain anonymous said that prior to Rowe being assigned to the Philippines in 1987, at one point in Greece while Rowe was on assignment, Delta Force, the U.S. anti-terrorist organization, moved in, secured the area and relocated Rowe. They had received reports that Vietnamese communist agents were planning an action against Rowe. "He was a target when he went over there because of his dealings with the North Vietnamese and his time as a prisoner," Robert Mountel, a retired Special Forces colonel and former commander of the 5th Special Forces Group, subsequently explained, confirming what the other source had said. "They had him on their list." Despite the clear danger especially posed to Rowe and other intelligence operatives, Rowe was not given a heavily armored car to travel in.
