  • Limits of human endurance

    The art of war and what it takes to be on the vanguard. Listening to these stories make my life easier, no complaints relative to MACV. I do think thag “striker” would think me a communist but seperate the art from the artist… i’d have a beer with him regardless. 5star

  • Nice to hear about MACVSOG

    I like MACVSOG because of their mission set and their classified Missions but I don’t really see their stories covered as much as other Units. It’s Nice to see something just detected to SOG. They’ve got some crazy stories that are cool to hear.
