John Adrian O'Hare (aka 'Jack O'Hare', 'Colonel Richard Gray', 'The Gray Ghost') was a member of the U.S. Armed Forces, businessman and CIA contractor. He "up and died" in March 1975 and believed to have been relocated to South Africa because of the investigation of CIA domestic improprieties (among other activities) by the Rockefeller, Church and Pike senate subcommittees in 1975.
Military Career
WW II U.S. Army Occupation Force in Germany.
U.S. Army in Korea.
U.S. Air Force in Florida.
Attached to Special Operations Forces (Including Green Beret Units, U.S. Army Ranger School) in Florida and other locations.
CIA career
Jack O'Hare walked a fine line between being a member of the U.S. Armed Forces, CIA Contractor, and businessman. He blended seamlessly between all three activities with ease according to his current needs. As one of the CIA's most successful hidden assets he was in different ways involved with JMWAVE, Dallas, the Congo Operation, Chilean coup d'etat of 1973 and domestic CIA activities which were strictly against the CIA charter.
Exposure
When Seymour Hersh wrote his infamous New York Times story on December 22, 1974 on CIA Domestic improprieties, that was the end of Jack O'Hare's life as he knew it. In the beginning of 1975 three senate subcommittees were formed to look into CIA activities and this made Jack O'Hare hot as a firecracker as he was in the middle of it.
Flight to South Africa
After attention from the US subcommittees, O'Hare faked his own death and left the United States and his family to never be heard from again and relocate to South Africa. The CIA pulled out all the stops to keep his role a dark secret by employing assets such as the infamous Watergate lawyer Bernard Fensterwald and Military Intelligence agents to help throw the trail off O'Hare.
