I'm looking for anyone who may recall a national wire service story that was sent out during the 1983 Grenada invasion, which alluded to the possible need for martial law in the US if public sentiment was strongly opposed to the invasion.
First of all, I'm not "bashing" Reagan. I'm only trying to locate a record of this story. I and a couple of my acquaintances recall seeing a story in which the author reported on a "leaked" internal White House memo that discussed the possibility of declaring martial law in the US in the event public sentiment was strongly opposed to the invasion. The story appeared for one day and then disappeared. We're all sure that we saw it, but so far, we haven't been able to dig it out of any newspaper archives.
Anyone else recall this item???
