Those SOG guys were the OG.
Rockin' a BAR belt stuffed full of 20 rounders and those could be red sun glasses.

I can't look at this picture and not hear the Animals "We Gotta Get Out of This Place", in my head

It looks more Punk to me, like The Clash and “Rock the Casbah”.
Or the Stones "Gimme Shelter".
"Paint it Black"
"Fortunate Son"

And here I thought it was “The Ride of the Valkyries”.

Just finished the book SOG by John Plaster. It was quite read. And right in the middle of the Hunter Killers.

Excellent book. As a kid in the 80s I grew up reading about these guys in Soldier of Fortune and things like that. It's amazing what these guys actually did and that any of them lived. Another crazy one is "Whisky Tango Foxtrot" by Lynne Black.

A very good read. My favorite first person SOG books are We Few and Whispers in the Tall Grass by Nick Brokhausen who served in CCN. His style of writing is very entertaining and the off-duty antics of the SOG soldiers are just as crazy as their missions.
A lot of those SF and MACV-SOG OGs live in the greater Fayetteville area, and some of them still work as contractors for Robin Sage. Every now and then I follow some student ODAs in Sage that have the medics I have worked with, and the stories these guys tell around the campfires.

If I survived all that shit, I'd probably want to live near the ole clubhouse too.

Does that thing actually play music? If it does not, I'll just throw in the appropriate 8-track tape.

There are several videos on YT of interviews with these guys. Truly remarkable.
Serious OG stuff right here.

One of MACV-SOG’s best, SGM Billy Waugh in Gardez, Afghanistan with a silenced MP5 hunting Osama Bin Laden with the CIA during Operation Enduring Freedom at the age of 72. Waugh was born in 1929 and he's personally hunting Bin Laden after 9-11.
The real superheroes.
I also highly recommend the SOG books by John Stryker Meyer, aka “Tilt,” for anyone interested in the subject: On the Ground, Across the Fence, The SOG Chronicles. A great writer and a true gentleman, he was very generous with his time and helped me a lot with my first book.
He also has a podcast which runs long but is well worth it, interviewing operators and pilots, he even interviewed RK Brown which was interesting to me having been a kid in the 80s interested in Vietnam, and Contras, etc.
For Huey tunes, I like all those, and “Run Through the Jungle…” Starting to see a pattern.

RIP Billy, Samuel Whittemore would be proud.
