David Peter - Recon Team Diamondback MACV-SOG
Those SOG guys were the OG.
Rockin' a BAR belt stuffed full of 20 rounders and those could be red sun glasses.
I can't look at this picture and not hear the Animals "We Gotta Get Out of This Place", in my head
Or the Stones "Gimme Shelter".Quote:

Excellent book. As a kid in the 80s I grew up reading about these guys in Soldier of Fortune and things like that. It's amazing what these guys actually did and that any of them lived. Another crazy one is "Whisky Tango Foxtrot" by Lynne Black.Quote:

If I survived all that shit, I'd probably want to live near the ole clubhouse too.Quote:
