Publisher's Note Major John L. Plaster, a three-tour veteran of Vietnam tells the story of the most highly classified United States covert operatives to serve in the war: The Studies and Observations Group, code-named SOG. Comprised of volunteers from such elite military units as the Army's Green Berets, the USAF Air Commandos, and Navy SEALs, SOG agents answered directly to the Pentagon's Joint Chiefs, with some missions requiring approval from the White House. Now for the first time, the dangerous assignments of this top-secret unit can at last be revealed!
Industry Reviews "...Major Plaster's book is comprehensive, informative and often exciting. His effort to recount American soldiers' feats of bravery in Indochina is a worthy act of historical rescue from an unjustified willed oblivion." New York Times Book Review - Richard Bernstein (01/21/1997)
