Dr Crocker (1941-) was assistant Secretary of State and was the "point man" for United States policy in Africa from 1981-1989. His negotiating skills helped drive the withdrawal of South African troops from Namibia, whilst at the same time Cuban troops withdrew from Angola. This facilitated Namibia's subsequent independence.
