John Plaster’s riveting account of his covert activities as a member of a special operations team during the Vietnam War is “a true insider’s account, this eye-opening report will leave readers feeling as if they’ve been given a hot scoop on a highly classified project” (Publishers Weekly).

Code-named the Studies and Observations Group, SOG was the most secret elite US military unit to serve in the Vietnam War—so secret its very existence was denied by the government. Composed entirely of volunteers from such ace fighting units as the Army Green Berets, Air Force Air Commandos, and Navy SEALs, SOG took on the most dangerous covert assignments, in the deadliest and most forbidding theaters of operation.

In SOG, Major John L. Plaster, a three-tour SOG veteran, shares the gripping exploits of these true American warriors in a minute-by-minute, heartbeat-by-heartbeat account of the group’s stunning operations behind enemy lines—penetrating heavily defended North Vietnamese military facilities, holding off mass enemy attacks, launching daring missions to rescue downed US pilots. Some of the most extraordinary true stories of honor and heroism in the history of the US military, from sabotage to espionage to hand-to-hand combat, Plaster’s account is “a detailed history of this little-known aspect of the Vietnam War…a worthy act of historical rescue from an unjustified, willed oblivion” (The New York Times).

And also a written memorial for those who fought, for those who were scarred, for those who died and for those who vanished at the hands of an often an enemy several times as cruel as the US administrations involved. Men who fought for their country, the founding fathers‘ - not the administrations‘ - and for each other and their “little men”.
An essential and factual read in our post-decadent times where history is constantly reinvented by an impressing herd of unicorn mounted morons.
Thank you all for your service and sacrifice.

The narrator takes a bit getting used to but the story is captivating and gives some interesting perspectives on the clandestine part of the Vietnam War. Highly recommended!

Great stuff!
