The two are engaged and later<br />
married in New York, but she is<br />

Tough break.<br />
AGENT ROTH<br />
This may also have been <strong>the</strong> work of<br />
Hanoi Xan, but again, <strong>the</strong>re is no<br />
physical evidence to support this.<br />
She was buried with <strong>Banzai</strong>'s<br />
parents on <strong>the</strong> family plot near<br />
Austin, Texas.<br />

AGENT ROTH<br />
In 1972, at <strong>the</strong> age of 22, using<br />
his grandfa<strong>the</strong>r's fortune, <strong>Banzai</strong><br />
founds <strong>the</strong> <strong>Banzai</strong> Institute for<br />
Biomedical Engineering and<br />
Strategic Information in Holland<br />
Township, New Jersey to, and I<br />
quote "fulfill a need of <strong>the</strong><br />
scholarly community for greater<br />
continuity of research." In<br />
reality, it's a 112-acre fortress<br />
where he and his men carry out all<br />
sorts of unsanctioned experiments<br />
and covert activities without so<br />
much as a by-your-leave from <strong>the</strong><br />
United States Government.<br />

phrase "Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum" (If you wish for peace,<br />
prepare for war.)<br />
AGENT ROTH<br />
Soon afterward, <strong>Banzai</strong> formed what<br />
is pretty much considered to be his<br />
own private army, called <strong>the</strong> Blue<br />
Blaze Irregulars. We estimate <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
number at roughly 25,000. Scattered<br />
all over <strong>the</strong> world, <strong>the</strong>ir devotion<br />
borders on fanaticism. They attend<br />
survival camps and engage in o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
paramilitary activities associated<br />
with <strong>the</strong> <strong>Banzai</strong> Institute under <strong>the</strong><br />
guise of public service. They have<br />
been known to help out <strong>the</strong> red<br />
cross during natural disasters, but<br />
we believe that this is just<br />
showboating for <strong>the</strong> press.<br />
