Down in Laos is a superbly written war story set in Southeast Asia during the seizure of USS Pueblo, the Tet Offensive, and the Battle of Khe Sanh in 1968. Down in Laos is not a tiny story. It is a classic suspense, action-thriller about a naval ship, an air wing, and a pilot who is shot down and becomes a prisoner of the Pathet Lao. Mr. Partel not only entertains his readers in page-turning style, he leaves them a little smarter about the world. His self-described genre-journalistic fiction-provides the latitude to bring observations and ideas to the attention of the reader. So when downed navy pilot, Lt. Campbell, becomes a prisoner of war brutalized at the hands of the Pathet Lao, his plight parallels the Book of Job and subtly provides a comparison of Western Civilization with totalitarian states that lack a moral compass. And Mr. Partel's sense of history does not ignore the social issues of the mid 1960's in military and civilian life, and in the tradition of South Pacific, Down in Laos touches on these issues briefly but deftly. This is authentic historical fiction about the naval air war in Southeast Asia for avid military readers. And for readers who want the historical background and the social context reminiscent of Patrick O'Brian's naval novels of the Napoleonic Wars, they will find this tradition carried forward 150 years as USS Ticonderoga, Attack Carrier 14, succeeds the frigate in this well-written expression of modern naval fiction. -Navy Log Books Laos Infoplease Information on Laos geography history politics government economy population statistics culture religion languages largest cities as well as a map and Laos - Wikitravel Open source travel guide to Laos featuring up-to-date information on attractions hotels restaurants nightlife travel tips Human rights in Laos - Wikipedia The situation of human rights in Laos has often been and remains a recognized cause for serious concern Laos is one a handful of Marxist-Leninist governments and Laos - POWFOIA By Roger Hall American POWs known to have been held captive by the communist Pathet Lao (PL) were abandoned in Laos in 1973 When the United States withdrew the last Luang Say Lodges & Cruise - Mekong Cruise Cruise along the scenic banks of the Mekong River in southern Laos with a 3 day/2 night cruise The Vat Phou cruise boat boasts 12 cabins all with air-conditioning Laos - Wikipedia Etymology The English word Laos was coined by the French who united the three Lao kingdoms in French Indochina in 1893 and named the country as the plural of the US plane shot down over Laos - Mar 23 1961 - HISTORYcom On this day in History US plane shot down over Laos on Mar 23 1961 Learn more about what happened today on History Ho Chi Minh trail shot down plane Laos GPS Map US Air Force Maj Wendell Keller and his co-pilot Lt Virgil Mike Meroney prowl the night sky above Laos in their F-4D Phantom jet on the lookout for North Laos - Lonely Planet Seven days in Laos Puttering down jungle rivers scaling mist-laced mountain roads ziplining across treetops and sitting roadside with a steaming bowl of noodles Cruises 2 Days & 1 Night Down River - Luang Say Lodge Cruise along the scenic banks of the Mekong River in southern Laos with a 3 day/2 night cruise The Vat Phou cruise boat boasts 12 cabins all with air-conditioning
