1. What a tremendous article concerning a real U.S. American patriot and courageous humanitarian.

No doubt the dictatorship would have loved to have him assassinated. He clearly was far more of a man, or a human, than Secretary of State Henry Kissinger who encouraged and approved what the killers were doing throughout.

It has been so long since we've heard of any U.S. American of this caliber working for our government, with the exception of the brave people who testified at the recent House of Representatives hearings on Ukraine's President and the orange perversion.

"Tex" Harris clearly knew he could be snuffed out very easily every day he was there during the Dirty War, but he kept on ticking. May he rest in peace knowing he was one of the few who actually met the challenge, and became far more than most people ever will.

Love the Buenos Aires Times photo of him with his wife. They looked like a wonderful couple with a ton of spirit.

Thank you, sandensea.
