Oliver North Signed Book Mission Compromised – COA

A veteran of the Vietnam War, Oliver North was a National Security Council staff member during the Iran–Contra affair, a political scandal of the late 1980s. It involved the illegal sale of weapons to the Khomeini government of the Islamic Republic of Iran to encourage the release of American hostages then held in Lebanon. North formulated the second part of the plan, which was to divert proceeds from the arms sales to support the Contra rebel groups in Nicaragua, sales which had been specifically prohibited under the Boland Amendment. North was granted limited immunity from prosecution in exchange for testifying before Congress about the scheme. He was initially convicted on three felony charges, but the convictions were vacated and reversed and all charges against him dismissed in 1991.

Presented is the hardcover book “Mission Compromised” by Oliver North. He signed the book on the title page in blue felt tip (“9”) with the inscription, “Kevin – My Best”.
