SACO Treaty
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sino-American Special Technical Cooperative Organization Treaty, also known as the Sino-American Cooperative Organization (SACO), was an agreement signed by the Republic of China and the United States of America in 1942 during the Second World War. It established a mutual intelligence gathering entity in China between the respective nations against Japan. It also served as joint training program between the two nations.
The first and last operational chief of the organization was Dai Li, head of Chiang Kai-shek's secret police. Commander for the American forces was United States Navy Captain Milton E. Miles. "Mary" Miles was the commander of Naval Group China (NGC), the American Navy's intelligence unit in China during the war and was second in command of SACO (which was commanded by Dai Li).
