The Hunt For Red October
July 24, 2017 at 8:31 pm
I just noticed something while watching a re-run. The political officer that Sean Connery kills at the beginning is named "Putin." The book was written in 1984 when Vladimir Putin still hadn't had his cock sucked by the WLB?
Just a lucky guess on the name, you think?

Prior to 84 Putin was a junior KGB intelligence officer and Clancy was an unpublished insurance agent so yea just a coincidence.

And the WLB was just a small-time mafia-linked hood in New Jersey/New York.

And IT was a medical officer in the Soviet Navy.
