Colby Obit

Searchers found the body of former C-I-A Director William Colby today. He apparently drowned in a canoeing accident on a river in southern Maryland more than a week ago. His body was finally found on a riverbank. Authorities say they do not suspect foul play. NPR's Neal Conan looks at Colby's career, which included supervising the C-I-A's covert warfare in Vietnam in the 1960's.
