Back to EpisodesSOG Legend John Stryker "Tilt" Meyer Is Back! (Part One)
Description
Special Forces legend "Tilt" Meyer is back in a special two-part episode, sharing stories from his new book “On The Ground!”
If you joined MACV-SOG–-the Studies and Observations Group—in the 1960s for America's "Secret War" in Laos and Cambodia, the first thing you did was sign an oath to never speak about what happened for 20 years. Now able to speak freely, Tilt shares the sheer adventure and reality of jungle combat. Each SOG team was named after a U.S. state, and they were comprised of both American and local Vietnamese soldiers.
HBH is thrilled to have him back to describe the friendships, firefights, and fortitude of this remarkable fighting group.
