Praise for SOG
"Exciting [and] hair-raising...a detailed history of this little-known aspect of the Vietnam War."--The New York Times "Superb and compelling."--Gen. William C. Westmoreland, U.S. Army (ret.) "A magnificent book of enormous power and a milestone in the literature of special operations."--Col. Robert Howard, Medal of Honor winner, the Vietnam War's most highly decorated soldier "Authoritative and insightful...a true insider's account."--Publishers Weekly "Indispensable."--BooklistMajor John L. Plaster is a national authority on sniping, firearms, and special operations, as well as the author of Secret Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines With the Elite Warriors of SOG and SOG: The Secret Wars of America's Commandos in Vietnam.
