Summary of John L. Plaster's SOG
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 William Colby was the CIA's first long-term North Vietnam-based operative. He was a Catholic Ivy League man who sounded more like a corporate executive than a secret agent.
#2 The CIA began to send American Special Forces soldiers to train and assist the South Vietnamese who would execute Colby's covert missions. The Green Berets and SEALs weren't working for the CIA, but for CAS, an innocuous cover whose initials stood for Combined Area Studies.
#3 The SEALs trained junk crews to land secret agents in the North and organized a civilian raiding force, the Sea Commandos, for hit-and-run coastal attacks. The CIA brought in Nationalist Chinese instructor pilots with hundreds of missions over mainland China very similar to what Ky's men would fly.
#4 The CIA had a program called Operation Switchback that transferred these Southeast Asian programs to the military in 1962, but President Kennedy's assassination in 1963 delayed the transfer.
