Biography of Oliver North

Oliver North

Oliver Laurence "Ollie" North (conceived October 7, 1943) is a previous United States Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel, preservationist political reporter and TV host, military history specialist, and New York Times top of the line author. North was a National Security Council staff part throughout the Iran–contra issue, a political embarrassment of the late 1980s. The embarrassment included the surreptitious offer of weapons to Iran, which was to energize the arrival of U.s. prisoners then held in Lebanon. North planned the second part of the arrangement which was to redirect moves ahead from the arms deals to uphold the Contra revolt assembles in Nicaragua (which had been in particular precluded under the Boland Amendment). He is as of now the host of War Stories with Oliver North on Fox News Channel.
