CareerLt. Col. Thao Ty rose to prominence in 1963 when he replaced Brigadier-General Siho Lamphouthacoul as the commander of 1st Special Mobile Group (French: Groupement Mobile Speciale 1 – GMS 1), the para-commando regiment of the Directorate of National Coordination (French: Direction de Coordination Nationale – DCN) Security Agency. After the DNC's disbandement in February 1965, Thao Ty was transferred to the Royal Lao Army (RLA) and given command of the RLA's second airborne regiment, Mobile Group 21 (French: Groupement Mobile 21 Aeroportée – GM 21).[1] In 1970, he transferred again to the CIA-run guerrilla programme in Savannakhet and was posted in charge of all irregular Special Guerrilla Units (SGU) forces in the Military Region 3. During the following year he was promoted to Brigadier-General after its participation in retaking the town of Paksong in December 1972.[2] He then transferred back to the regular Army in order to head both the newly formed 2nd Strike Division (French: 2éme Division d'Intervention) and the new elite Special Commando Company (French: Compagnie Commando Speciale – CCS) or SPECOM for short.[3][4] In May 1975 Brig. Gen. Thao Ty was quickly arrested and executed by the Pathet Lao.[5] See also
