Hey fellas, lets get the old thread I started back in the MP.net days going again. Hopefully some NEW old pics have surfaces.

I think I named it "MACV-SOG, SEALS, LRRP, GREEN BERETS, RANGERS AND SASR IN VIETNAM" or something close to that.

Why did they have gas masks on ? Tear Gas ?

The grenades with the red stripe seem to be M7 RIOT CS Grenades and the two cans in the last photo could be containers for them, too. So I guess it was a protection against their own CS gas.

Don't know who these guys are but the photos rock. :cool:

Terry O'Farrell, he's a 24 year old Sergeant SASR patrol commander on his second tour in this pic, your average SASR new trooper is older than that these days. He went on to be the unit RSM, before becoming an Officer (where I served with him at his first RAR posting in 8/9RAR) and finishing up as 2IC of the Regiment in 2004.

Operation Idaho Canyon. We captured three NVA. This one was critically wounded, he died after being med-evac to 3rd med. It showed that we did our best to save him. He was between the age 14-16


Opps Not special forces
