Because SOG operations suffered extraordinary casualties, they required extraordinary soldiers. So when Capt. Thom Nicholson arrived at Command and Control North (CCN) in Da Nang, SOG's northernmost base camp, he knew he was going to be working with the cream of the crop. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs commander of Company B, CCN's Raider Company, Nicholson commanded four platoons, comprising nearly two hundred men, in some of the war's most deadly missions, including ready-reaction missions for patrols in contact with the enemy, patrol extractions under fire, and top-secret expeditions \"over the fence\" into Laos, Cambodia, and North Vietnam. Colonel Nicholson spares no one, including himself, as he provides a rare glimpse into the workings of one of the military's most carefully concealed reconnaissance campaigns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thom Nicholson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804118728\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804118729\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Presidio Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.84h x 4.12w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIngram Paperback Advance\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/1999 pg. 39","brand":"Thom Nicholson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46311024263423,"sku":"9780804118729","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_06ef8fbf-7c59-44d0-8b37-0b0a0cd3357c.jpg?v=1730887890","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/15-months-in-sog-thom-nicholson-9780804118729","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
