This is the debrief of my time attending the Special Operations Association Reunion (SOAR) in Las Vegas, Nevada. On this podcast, I have been fortunate to speak to multiple members of MACV-SOG including: John Stryker Meyer, Roger Lockshier, Dale Hanson, and Jim Jones-Shorten. There are no words to describe my gratitude to have been invited to attend the reunion, it was truly a life changing experience. In this episode, I describe the impact the event had on me and share many incredible stories. Attending the reunion ignited the flame within me to take on my next challenge - writing my first book!
Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG) was a highly classified, multi-service United States special operations unit which conducted covert unconventional warfare operations prior to and during the Vietnam War.
Established on 24 January 1964, the unit conducted strategic reconnaissance missions in the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam), the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam), Laos, and Cambodia; carried out the capture of enemy prisoners, rescued downed pilots, conducted rescue operations to retrieve prisoners of war throughout Southeast Asia, and conducted clandestine agent team activities and psychological operations.
