SUMMARY

An Australian bank staffed by generals and spooks. Its founder was found shot beside a Bible and a colonel's card.

FULL DOSSIER

Nugan Hand Bank (Sydney, 1973-80): documented staffing of ex-US military and intelligence figures (Adm. Yates president; Gen. Cocke, Gen. Manor, CIA-linked figures on letterhead), drug-money and arms allegations investigated by three Australian inquiries (Stewart Royal Commission found drug financing; the joint task force documented heroin-trade banking), Frank Nugan dead by rifle in 1980 (ruled suicide), Michael Hand vanished — located by journalists in Idaho in 2015, never extradited. The node is the CIA-banking thread's Australian exhibit, linking BCCI and the black-eagle lore.
