The Fort Benning crowd was the staff run by Wheeler who manned the School of the Americas, located in I think Panama Canal Zone at the time, but run out of Benning and later transferred there directly. It was infamous for training men wno became dictators in the Third World. Mahoney says they liked Mobutu.
