Out of the Loop. William Lewis "Bud" Uanna was the Chief of the Division of Physical Security at the U. S. Department of State from 1953 to 1961 and was the liaison between the U. S. Department of State and the U. S. Department of Defense. Bud Uanna's son has concluded that the charade that was to play out during the late 1950's and early 1960's involving the Bay of Pigs and the assassination of President Kennedy would have been much more difficult to pull off with Bud Uanna at his desk in the Department of State in Washington, D. C. than thousands of miles away in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
