@@BlackRifleCoffeeCompany The man who lived next door to me for years was a Vietnam Vet. He was such an amazing person and was like a grandfather to me. Not only that, but he was also a secret service agent for Nixon. We didn't believe him at first but he called the white house when he didn't get his VA check and he asked to talk to I forgot who it was I think the VA secretary but it's been so many years I don't remember exactly. After he talked to them and told them he was a Vietnam vet and was in the secret service the man he spoke to told him his check would be in the mail the next day. Surely enough it was. He died 2 years ago, I miss him so much. :(
@N-Word Salesman Not sure that you understand you are commenting on a channel that is dedicated to selling coffee... The best coffee that I've ever tasted, btw.
My Husband was a MAC V veteran…he was an author & wrote Queens Rook , A Soldiers Story based on his letters he wrote home & photos he took. He passed away last month with complications form Agent Orange.He was in the hospital for 2 months & wore his MAC V cap everyday while there. Thank Your for Your Sevice.
As a veteran that spent ten years in the Marines, six years in Okinawa, these guys are stunning to say the least. They chased danger till they grabbed it by the tail. Then they gave it the what for and the what not. Truly fearless. Thank you for making this video. Cheers!
I love this interviewing old school guys. My grandfather was a contractor in Cambodia during Vietnam. That's how my dad got out of the refugee camps during the Khmer rouge.
Id like to say that was the best interview with SOG guys ive ever seen. Pat is an amazing guy to listen to. Thank you Evan, for bringing the spotlight on a group that ran longer and harder than any special forces group since ww2. They literally wrote the SOP for modern warfare at the tip of the spear.
At college in '68 I knew a Marine vet who, when asked which fraternity he would join replied 'Mekong Delta'. The questioner had no clue. Later, '71 I got a job as a soldier.
These guys are Living Legends, those SOG guys running recon did the most hair raising shit I’ve ever read about. You start reading those books and you cannot put them down.
Roland Rios tiger force is a good one. I think Meyer wrote it but I may be wrong. Great read. These dudes were doing the craziest shit I’ve ever read about
Gotta agree! Im impressed with any high level operators ,but these guys for me are still the benchmark. The stories you read about..damn..crazy and scary as hell. Amazing guys😎👍
@johnny 2BAD MACV means Military Assistance Command Vietnam..part of the United States military command system when Nam started to really blow up and USA had a deeper involvement. Im sure a vet could better explain it😅 Hope that helps!?
My grandpa had some wicked burn/melt holes on him from the Korean war. "Got stuck in a hot rainstorm of napalm and didn't have my god damn umbrella made from pussy lips!" Was his quick answer when people asked/noticed. Lol. As a kid I didn't get it. Now that I'm in my 30s, I laugh& use the phase often.
God. We had to sing a song when running at PI boot camp and it ended “Napalm sticks to kids!” We had some sick DIs! (Most of who were all Vietnam Vets. (This was 1986)
Awesome interview! I had the privilege to be associated with three MACVSOG Green Berets during high school JROTC, Ed Rybat, Chuck Kirby, and SGM Burns. All three legends but at the time I had no idea (1983-86). I later learned about them through John Plaster and his book SOG. Great Americans!
Listening to these men and their stories is truly humbling (definitely listen to Jocko’s podcasts with “Tilt”)! The hell they fought through mission after mission is unimaginable. Thank you BRCC for having them on and for the recognition they so deeply deserve!

Seeing this has made me think it's time to get those wheels turning.
Thank you Evan for recognizing these living legends. John Meyers book is a must read along with John Plaster’s . I’m hoping that the SOG coffee hasn’t sold out yet. I tried to order when it was first out but had trouble so waiting for Monday to talk with live person. Did get the SOG hoodie !
The MAC V coffee actually has sold out already! But if you want to hop on the ECS train, all coffee club members can sign up to be notified when the next batch rolls out. Glad you got the hoodie though! Tigerstripes are definitely making a comeback And yes, John Meyer's book is amazing. To everyone reading: if you get "Across the Fence," make sure you grab the expanded edition!
I absolutely loved watching this..I'm so thankful for all of our past present future and lost service members. I have so much respect for each of y'all. My father was 23 years out of fort Campbell and fort Bragg. Stationed in Karlsruhe Germany lived there for almost 5 years ..then state side. I won't put my service so not to take away from all of y'all. But love of country is strong in myself and my family .. again thank you BRCC for everything yall do. Ordered a couple bags this morning and a mug..went to the VA yesterday in West Virginia and seen an old Korean vet friend and talked to a number of other vets .. I truly enjoy hearing the story's of past. Take care. Hoorah.
Excellent interview. Tilt and I are good friends as well as Pat Watkins. I served at SOA-CCC, 1-0 of Rt. Delaware. I spent 10 years in SF, then transferred over and trained to be a USAF, PJ Best wishes to you all at Black Rifle Coffee
Outstanding video. Please keep these coming. Thank you for your service, brothers. A Vietnam SF vet used to walk around my old neighborhood every evening. I would chat with him some. He finally found out I was in the Infantry and former 82nd. He started opening up more and man he had some stories.
Best interview ever! Grew up in the 70’s looking up to these guys! Knew then the direction I was headed. Sad that I never made it to Group, nonetheless earned my B&C’s and spent quality time in support of fine warriors such as these! Thank you for paving the road ahead! Honored, indeed, to have trodden the path in your footsteps! Honored to have rubbed shoulders with a good number of them... Truly honored!
Amazing interview. I'm watching this from Sweden and having been always interested in the vietnam war - this is the jackpot of interviews. Thank you to Mr. Stryker Meyer, Mr. Watkins and BRCC!
My dad was a Green Beret & at one point served with the 82nd. He enlisted in '67. He passed in 2012 so sitting here & listening to these old timers tell their stories gives me an ache but then comes right back & soothes it. Welcome home, boys. Thank you for your service.
why did I go into Special Forces....I wanted to be my own boss! FOB II 'Dec69-'70. OneZero RT Vermont and RT Colorado (OneTwo on RT Iowa) Thanks for Coffee and ....fun craziness! These men are legends.
It’s really a blessing to hear these stories I know a lot of veterans don’t like to talk about it and it’s perfectly understanding but I love to hear them !
Yeah, definitely understandable if people don't want to talk about it - but when they do, we think it's healthy that America listens! We are blessed to have a decent platform that people watch, and when we get the opportunity to share amazing, inspiring stories like these, we're all about it. We're just glad that these two hopped on board with us
That was a fascinating interview. I'd like to thank Evan and everybody at BRCC who work so hard to honor our veterans. It is vital that we make the general public aware of the accomplishments and sacrifices made by those in the military to keep us free. BRCC does that every day. Thank you.
This was amazing to watch. I'll be finishing this while I'm at work and listening to it like a podcast. Thank you for what you do with the community and I look forward to other videos like this.
I wish I could thumbs-up a thousand times on this video. I wish everyone understood and appreciated what SOG did and meant for this country. I was introduced via two sources - the John Clark character in Tom Clancy's novels and by Maj John L. Plaster's books. I hope to expand my library of SOG history soon. Brave to the point of audacious, these men were beyond heroic.
My grandfather was the outdoors program director at the U of U for many years. My father was sf in ‘63 and married his Draper sweetheart. Thanks for your service and these fabulous stories.
Get John’s books. My pages were soaked from my palms sweating while reading. Can’t believe these guys are still alive after their service. Thank you to all the service members who get out there and get some.
3:33 " It's gonna get a little tricky because the places we fought were laos and Cambodia " .....man I miss my dad ....I typed in MACV to see what was new on you tube .Brilliant Evan .Thank you for this and your service .John Stryker thank you sir 🇺🇸 Pat thank you sir .My father Lt. Colonel John H. Hayes U.S. Special Forces 1938-1984 ( Westmoreland's man ....not General Hieu's ) Respect . DE OPPRESO LIBER
I watched/listen to john’s podcasts with Jocko. And now I watched this one. And I can’t help but to crack a smile when I hear this man’s laugh. It such a good hearted cheery laugh. He can change the feel of a story with it. makes it sound a lot less scary then I’m sure it really was.
My uncle was a p.o.w in Japan and part of the batan death march. I remember him telling me stories of the ships they were transported in, full of dead bodies and maggots. how badly mistreated the p.o.w were. These are real men and true heros. And we all owe our lives to there selfless service.
So glad Jocko had Meyer on and got his name out there. Never would have found his books, never would have found this channel, etc. Love this dude; he needs to start his own podcast! Though with SOG chronicles I'm sure he's a busy man
One of my closest friends served in MAC V-SOG... thank you for sharing your stories, he will appreciate seeing this. Would love to see a good movie produced about what these guys did.
This is the best interview I've ever seen and the definition of "tentative" subject matter. Thank you for letting these men tell their amazing stories, I'm blown away. AIRBORNE!
@@justjsse8917 I will do that, thanks. Cool story, I had the honor of meeting MSG Benavidez in Camp Casey, Korea when he was on a speaking tour in 1994. Talk about truly awed, just an amazing experience listening to his story. Totally humbling and a great experience for me as a young Private. The man was as stoic as I have ever met and it was truly an honor.
These guys and macv is amazing. I knew little to nothing about it. I'm seriously humbled on my Vietnam knowledge. Also, nice timing on the "technical difficulties." ;) Paperclip.
MAC V-SOG is fascinating to read and hear about. True heroes -- if you're interested in all this, definitely check out Tilt's book, "Across The Fence: The Secret War in Vietnam (Expanded Edition)." The stories in there are straight-up incredible.
When I was with 1/1 Cav (2003-2005) we had a SSG Ngo who was Vietnamese. He was easily the oldest Bradley commander in the squadron, and he was _extremely_ tough. I was in a tank platoon, so I never spoke to him, but everyone said he had been a child soldier in Vietnam, fighting against the Viet Cong.
Missed the podcast, but just wanted to say Thank you and Welcome Home fellas!.. Just finished "Across the Fence" (outstanding read!!!) and am working on the second book by "Tilt" , I've also read Nick Brokhausen's two books and highly recommend them. So Salute from an retired USAF TACP/EBALO (now JTACs). Also Great Coffee!!!!
As a retiring 18D I love hearing the SOG stories. I also listen to Jocko on a regular basis, and I really enjoyed both Tilt and Dynamite Dick’s interviews. As for SEALs it’s been my experience as long as there’s less than a group of 3 of them, then everything is alright. If there’s more than 3 then well....
This is one of the most impactful videos I have ever watched. Never Forget those who never made it back home. 💝 😓 I'll probably rewatch this video again later tonight, as it's all still sinking in from having just watched it. I mean this sincerely, this video is incredible. We stand on the shoulders of giants; giants such as these men and the men they talk about, and with whom they served.
That wall in the background of George Washington and the Continental Army is incredible . It's great your taking the time to give attention to this warrior as well as MACV-SOG .
As the son of a Marine veteran in Vietnam during the 66 to 68 timeline, I thank all you Vietnam vets. I learned about the war mostly from his sleep. He's the reason I joined the military. Unfortunately he died 10 years ago today on April fool's day. Miss you old man.
Definitely need a part 2 about this. Would definitely like Evan to tell them how different SF is nowadays. Like how structured everything is. Would love to hear their opinion.
Thanks for having them on...these stories need to be told and retold...they did what their country asked of them and did it well...they have my respect and gratitude. Great channel and content, keep up the great work
I really appreciate this interview. I would love to see more sit downs with former vets and have them talk about their experiences, they are a wealth of knowledge.
Great interview. Love these old timers. I’d like to hear the kind of stories they don’t share on the Internet... - Need to get Billy Waugh at the interview table. 🤙🏼🇺🇸
It's important to remember our heritage and strive to maintain the values and morals that our brothers and sisters have fought with. It will always be something we will do when we have the opportunity.
My father was SOG & originating “OG” Marine and one of the designers of that MAC “V” SOG Military Assault Command Special Observation Group “Viet Nam” specific patch. Mad respect for those operators and the “chosin reservoir” Marines Sailors (USCG included) Soldiers and Airmen who are the savage Warriors that paved the way for all the Badassery that followed. God’s speed-hell bound! Blessings to all that served and who are serving! Semper Fi! Semper Paratus! Beyond forever, Axeman
I'm sure you meant "Military Assistance Command", as "Military Assault Command" is from "Star Trek"? The acronym, MACV SOG, stands for Military Assistance Command Vietnam - Studies and Observations Group.
I was just thinking the same thing about the thumbs down. I wish BRCC had shops like their shit competitors. Or maybe not, I would spend money in there like a strip club.
I'm a Veteran of 2 foriegn wars and I'll march my happy ass into Starbucks any day of the week. Does that make me a liberal? This BRCC coffee is obviously a lot better but supporting or not supporting a brand doesn't make you patriotic, Signing your life to protect this country does. Respect to the men speaking and making this their mission and all that they've done.
@@jacobfarrell7171 I'm a Marine Veteran Infantryman so I could care less about what you think. Oh and I didnt show any disrespect towards those men. So I dont know why you have to get butthurt.
God bless Tilt! The patience of a saint. Sgt Watkins must have interrupted him 100X and he didn’t say a word. Ha! I could have listened to these lads talk for 1,000 hours. Thank you for giving them a platform to speak and share their life lessons and sacrifice. Much appreciated!
Met Sgt Louis deseta many yrs ago lived next door to my mother in law. Quiet old man, with one hell of a history. MacV Sog. I was telling him about my time in Afghanistan and he said yes difficult ty for your service. Once I did research in the history of war I was floored. Great American heros
What an awesome experience one of the finest men ever made don’t know if you know but he volunteered for macvsog straight from his tour with the 173rd Airborne Brigade and he finally was officially recognized and given his green beret from sf command and official documentation that he is real legitimate sf I know tilt talked about it and said he was so happy and relieved to finally get what he deserved big brother Lou is a big brother I respect so much and such a humble guy who loves his brothers and thinks he served with heroes but big brother Lou is a hero too that’s so cool as a fellow afghan Iraq airborne infantry ranger veteran that you could have conversations with him man I wish I could’ve been there to here those talks you’re a special man I know you must cherish that time thanks for your service brother
William Waugh (born December 1, 1929) is a former United States Army Special Forces soldier and Central Intelligence Agency paramilitary operations officer who served more than 50 years between the U.S. Army's Green Berets and the CIA's Special Activities Division (renamed Special Activities Center in 2016 Waugh enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1948, completing basic training at Fort Ord, California, in August of that year. He was accepted into the United States Army Airborne School and became airborne qualified in December 1948. In April 1951, Waugh was assigned to the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team (RCT) in Korea. Shortly after the end of the Korean War, Waugh met two Special Forces members on a train in Germany, they informed him of openings for Platoon sergeants, shortly after he requested a transfer. He began training for the Special Forces. He earned the Green Beret in 1954, joining the 10th Special Forces Group (SFG) in Bad Tölz, West Germany. As U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War increased, the United States began deploying Special Forces "A-teams" (Operational Detachment Alpha, or ODA, teams) to Southeast Asia in support of counterinsurgency operations against the Viet Cong, North Vietnamese and other Communist forces. Waugh arrived in South Vietnam with his ODA in 1961, and began working alongside Civilian Irregular Defense Groups (CIDGs) there, as well as in Laos. In 1965, while participating in a commando raid with his CIDG unit on a North Vietnamese Army encampment near Bong Son, Binh Dinh province, Waugh's unit found itself engaged with much larger enemy force than anticipated. Expecting only a few hundred NVA, it was discovered that a force of Chinese regulars had joined the NVA Elite; combining for almost 4,000 soldiers. While he and his men attempted to retreat from the battle, Waugh received numerous severe wounds to his head and legs. Unconscious, he was taken for dead by NVA soldiers and left alone. Despite his injuries, with the assistance of his teammates Waugh was safely evacuated from the combat zone. He spent much of 1965 and 1966 recuperating at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C., eventually returning to duty with 5th Special Forces Group in 1966. He received a Silver Star and a Purple Heart (His 6th) for the battle of Bong Son. At this time Waugh joined the Military Assistance Command-Vietnam Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG). While working for SOG, Waugh helped train Vietnamese and Cambodian forces in unconventional warfare tactics primarily directed against the North Vietnamese Army operating along the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Prior to retirement from U.S. Army Special Forces service, Waugh was senior NCO (non-commissioned officer) of MACV-SOG's Command & Control North (CCN) based at Marble Mountain on the South China Sea shore a few miles south of Da Nang, Vietnam. Waugh held this Command Sergeant Major role during the covert unit's transition and name change to Task Force One Advisory Element (TF1AE). SGM Waugh conducted the first combat High Altitude, Low Opening (HALO) jump, a parachuting maneuver designed for rapid, undetected insertion into hostile territory. In October 1970, his team made a practice Combat Infiltration into the NVA owned War Zone D, in South Vietnam, for reassembly training, etc. Waugh also led the last combat Special reconnaissance parachute insertion by American Army Special Forces HALO parachutists into denied territory which was occupied by communist North Vietnamese Army (NVA) troops on June 22, 1971. Waugh retired from active military duty at the rank of Sergeant Major (E-9) on February 1, 1972. Prior to retirement, Waugh worked for the CIA's elite Special Activities Division, starting in 1961. After Waugh retired from the military, he worked for the United States Postal Service until he accepted an offer in 1977 from ex-CIA officer Edwin P. Wilson to work in Libya on a contract to train that country's special forces. This was not an Agency-endorsed assignment and Waugh might have found himself in trouble with U.S. authorities if it weren't for the fact that he was also approached by the CIA to work for the Agency while in Libya. The CIA tasked him with surveilling Libyan military installations and capabilities - this was of great interest to U.S. intelligence as Libya was receiving substantial military assistance from the Soviet Union at the time. This additional assignment quite possibly protected Waugh from prosecution after Wilson was later indicted and convicted in 1979 for illegally selling weapons to Libya. In the 1980s he was assigned to the Kwajalein Missile Range in the Marshall Islands to track Soviet small boat teams (Naval Spetsnaz: Dolfin) operating in the area and prevent them from stealing U.S. missile technology. Some of his more critical assignments took place in Khartoum, Sudan during the early 1990s, where he performed surveillance and intelligence gathering on terrorist leaders Carlos the Jackal and Osama bin Laden with Cofer Black. At the age of 71, Waugh participated in Operation Enduring Freedom as a member of the CIA team led by Gary Schroen that went into Afghanistan to work with the Northern Alliance to topple the Taliban regime and Al Qaeda at the Battle of Tora Bora. Waugh was in-country from October to December 2001. Waugh spent many years being both a "Blue Badger" (employee) and a "Green Badger" (contractor). He continues to work as a "Green Badger". It is unknown how many missions Waugh was involved in during his career. In 1985, Waugh was again requested by the CIA for clandestine work. Before he took the offer, he decided to further his education, earning bachelor's degrees in Business and Police Science from Wayland Baptist University in 1987. He also earned a master's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a specialization in criminal justice administration (MSCJA) in 1988 from Texas State University (formerly Southwest Texas State), in San Marcos, TX.

Excellent interview. Tilt and I are good friends as well as Pat Watkins. I served at SOA-CCC, 1-0 of Rt. Delaware. I spent 10 years in SF, then transferred over and trained to be a USAF, PJ Best wishes to you all at Black Rifle Coffee
Where did the USAF SOG operate.
My gun Uncle was working for them for 65 months.70-75.
Do you know of them.
Worked for a man known as 3 fingers.
The 137 dislikes were VCs and NVAs who are still butthurt over the way SOG moved into their backyard and called it home.
Outstanding video. Please keep these coming. Thank you for your service, brothers. A Vietnam SF vet used to walk around my old neighborhood every evening. I would chat with him some. He finally found out I was in the Infantry and former 82nd. He started opening up more and man he had some stories.
Best interview ever! Grew up in the 70’s looking up to these guys! Knew then the direction I was headed. Sad that I never made it to Group, nonetheless earned my B&C’s and spent quality time in support of fine warriors such as these! Thank you for paving the road ahead! Honored, indeed, to have trodden the path in your footsteps! Honored to have rubbed shoulders with a good number of them... Truly honored!
Amazing interview. I'm watching this from Sweden and having been always interested in the vietnam war - this is the jackpot of interviews. Thank you to Mr. Stryker Meyer, Mr. Watkins and BRCC!
Wow most intrested thing i watched in a long time , Thankyou BRCC you guys are doing amazing work
My dad was a Green Beret & at one point served with the 82nd. He enlisted in '67. He passed in 2012 so sitting here & listening to these old timers tell their stories gives me an ache but then comes right back & soothes it. Welcome home, boys. Thank you for your service.
why did I go into Special Forces....I wanted to be my own boss!
FOB II 'Dec69-'70. OneZero RT Vermont and RT Colorado (OneTwo on RT Iowa)
Thanks for Coffee and ....fun craziness!
These men are legends.
You know these men?
It’s really a blessing to hear these stories I know a lot of veterans don’t like to talk about it and it’s perfectly understanding but I love to hear them !
Yeah, definitely understandable if people don't want to talk about it - but when they do, we think it's healthy that America listens! We are blessed to have a decent platform that people watch, and when we get the opportunity to share amazing, inspiring stories like these, we're all about it. We're just glad that these two hopped on board with us
I could listen to these guys all day long. Thanks for your service!! 🇺🇸
That was a fascinating interview. I'd like to thank Evan and everybody at BRCC who work so hard to honor our veterans. It is vital that we make the general public aware of the accomplishments and sacrifices made by those in the military to keep us free. BRCC does that every day. Thank you.
11:15 is the end of the coffee advert
thanks
Just what I was looking for 👍
Viet coffee is great. Bit tragic marketing it with American military acheivements
Hell do you know how many people wanted to see how Evan makes coffee? A lot
We salute you sir
heroes
This was amazing to watch. I'll be finishing this while I'm at work and listening to it like a podcast. Thank you for what you do with the community and I look forward to other videos like this.
Just ordered "Across the Fence".
Can't wait to dig in.
Thanks for bringing us these guys, Evan.
I am a monthly subscriber. Never been disappointed in any way. Coffee with 'brass balls'. Army artillery '71-'74.
I wish I could thumbs-up a thousand times on this video. I wish everyone understood and appreciated what SOG did and meant for this country. I was introduced via two sources - the John Clark character in Tom Clancy's novels and by Maj John L. Plaster's books. I hope to expand my library of SOG history soon. Brave to the point of audacious, these men were beyond heroic.
What an amazing interview and bit of history that these men shared with you (and us). Absolutely awesome.
Look at Evan's face, that the face of a grown man meeting his childhood heroes.
Sam C no doubt!!!
I'm even happier that his hero lived up to his expectation. They dont make em like they used too
@@charliehopkins9561 They sure don't boss.
That's the way Jocko was too. These men are definitely top notch. "Welcome home, men"
My grandfather was the outdoors program director at the U of U for many years. My father was sf in ‘63 and married his Draper sweetheart. Thanks for your service and these fabulous stories.
Get John’s books. My pages were soaked from my palms sweating while reading. Can’t believe these guys are still alive after their service. Thank you to all the service members who get out there and get some.
3:33 " It's gonna get a little tricky because the places we fought were laos and Cambodia " .....man I miss my dad ....I typed in MACV to see what was new on you tube .Brilliant Evan .Thank you for this and your service .John Stryker thank you sir 🇺🇸 Pat thank you sir .My father Lt. Colonel John H. Hayes U.S. Special Forces 1938-1984 ( Westmoreland's man ....not General Hieu's ) Respect . DE OPPRESO LIBER
These are truly amazing men,thank you for sharing that and may your father rest easy💙
Thank you BRCC for this ! It's great these men are finally getting there due !
I watched/listen to john’s podcasts with Jocko. And now I watched this one. And I can’t help but to crack a smile when I hear this man’s laugh. It such a good hearted cheery laugh. He can change the feel of a story with it. makes it sound a lot less scary then I’m sure it really was.
This is Gold. Thank you all for sharing your stories. Thanks BRCC for the video.
It's great to watch you guys talk. You see clearly the separation of year's. As well the youth in each. Thanks guys!
Fascinating. Thanks to all you guys for what you did and still do for us!
Great watch, have read a bunch about the exploits of macv- sog, unbelievable stuff. Much Respect to these retired warriors, cheers from Australia.
Thank you for doing this interview. Awesome!
My uncle was a p.o.w in Japan and part of the batan death march. I remember him telling me stories of the ships they were transported in, full of dead bodies and maggots. how badly mistreated the p.o.w were. These are real men and true heros. And we all owe our lives to there selfless service.
Good god almighty I would have died trying to get out of there.
That baby killer comeback reminds me of all the Vietnam vets I went to college with. I laughed way too hard those were some awesome guys
So glad Jocko had Meyer on and got his name out there. Never would have found his books, never would have found this channel, etc. Love this dude; he needs to start his own podcast! Though with SOG chronicles I'm sure he's a busy man
Great video guys...it’s awesome to be able to hear the war stories from the ones who started it all! 👍🏻
This was great I’m disappointed in myself that it took me this long to watch it. Thanks to all of you that serve.this country owes you everything....
One of my closest friends served in MAC V-SOG... thank you for sharing your stories, he will appreciate seeing this. Would love to see a good movie produced about what these guys did.
This is the best interview I've ever seen and the definition of "tentative" subject matter. Thank you for letting these men tell their amazing stories, I'm blown away.
AIRBORNE!
Jocko has multiple 3-4 hour episodes with macvsog guys, video shows on TH-cam or just listen to the podcast. They are fantastic
@@justjsse8917
I will do that, thanks.
Cool story, I had the honor of meeting MSG Benavidez in Camp Casey, Korea when he was on a speaking tour in 1994. Talk about truly awed, just an amazing experience listening to his story. Totally humbling and a great experience for me as a young Private. The man was as stoic as I have ever met and it was truly an honor.
@@jeffwalters8552 to be in a group that that hard ass spoke to, I would guess is an honor. Fing monster of a good man.
Would love it if this interview was available as a podcast. Hats off to Tilt and those he served with and thanks to BRCC for recognizing them!
These guys and macv is amazing. I knew little to nothing about it. I'm seriously humbled on my Vietnam knowledge.
Also, nice timing on the "technical difficulties." ;) Paperclip.
MAC V-SOG is fascinating to read and hear about. True heroes -- if you're interested in all this, definitely check out Tilt's book, "Across The Fence: The Secret War in Vietnam (Expanded Edition)." The stories in there are straight-up incredible.
He has like 10 hours of interviews with jocko as well on the books. Which only covers about 10% of em
When I was with 1/1 Cav (2003-2005) we had a SSG Ngo who was Vietnamese. He was easily the oldest Bradley commander in the squadron, and he was _extremely_ tough. I was in a tank platoon, so I never spoke to him, but everyone said he had been a child soldier in Vietnam, fighting against the Viet Cong.
Brooooo NOOOOOOOO. I fuckin swear of were in some kind of fucked up metal gear timeline...
Missed the podcast, but just wanted to say Thank you and Welcome Home fellas!.. Just finished "Across the Fence" (outstanding read!!!) and am working on the second book by "Tilt" , I've also read Nick Brokhausen's two books and highly recommend them. So Salute from an retired USAF TACP/EBALO (now JTACs). Also Great Coffee!!!!
Get all the books on these guys their all phenomenal! The amount of combat is mind boggling. Real Heroes.🇺🇸
You Guys Are So Good At What You Do For Us Vietnam Veterans Is Awesome! Good Coffee And Good People! I'm Hooked! Good Video!
John Stryker Meyer "Tilt" is a super Rambo. The most thrilling experience I have ever had. Thanks Black Rifle Coffee
My Dad did two tour's with the first Infantry & I have never been so proud of someone, man's my hero.
Thank you for your work and service! God Bless You Gents!
These gentlemen are awesome - I could listen to them talk all day
Listened to all the jocko episodes as they came out, unbelievable story. The man and his boys are true badasses
We really enjoy your coffee down the road at the Bridgestone plant. Thanks for doing what you do.
thanks for the interview, brought back alot of memories, thank you so much
We are grateful to be able to share stories like these! Thank you for listening
Awesome hearing these stories from the new and the old. Love the non watered down versions.
As a retiring 18D I love hearing the SOG stories. I also listen to Jocko on a regular basis, and I really enjoyed both Tilt and Dynamite Dick’s interviews.
As for SEALs it’s been my experience as long as there’s less than a group of 3 of them, then everything is alright. If there’s more than 3 then well....
Thanks for your service sir.
Medical sergeant for SF?
This is one of the most impactful videos I have ever watched. Never Forget those who never made it back home. 💝 😓 I'll probably rewatch this video again later tonight, as it's all still sinking in from having just watched it. I mean this sincerely, this video is incredible. We stand on the shoulders of giants; giants such as these men and the men they talk about, and with whom they served.
That wall in the background of George Washington and the Continental Army is incredible . It's great your taking the time to give attention to this warrior as well as MACV-SOG .
As the son of a Marine veteran in Vietnam during the 66 to 68 timeline, I thank all you Vietnam vets. I learned about the war mostly from his sleep. He's the reason I joined the military. Unfortunately he died 10 years ago today on April fool's day. Miss you old man.
So very sorry to hear of your sad loss.
@@darkknight1340 Thank you very much. We'll meet again some day.
Thank You guys for your service, welcome home.
Love everything that you guys do Evan, Matt and the whole BRCC crew! Nothing but respect for all of you.
Definitely need a part 2 about this. Would definitely like Evan to tell them how different SF is nowadays. Like how structured everything is. Would love to hear their opinion.
Thanks for having them on...these stories need to be told and retold...they did what their country asked of them and did it well...they have my respect and gratitude. Great channel and content, keep up the great work
Its amazing how genuine Evan is, nothing but respect for that man!
I really appreciate this interview. I would love to see more sit downs with former vets and have them talk about their experiences, they are a wealth of knowledge.
Thank you Gentlemen for your service and the training and knowledge passed down to us.
Great respect to these warriors as well as to BRCC for this amazing episod!
Thanks🇸🇪🙏
what a legend. I had Vietnam magazines when I was 16 i read about those SOG legends...awesome interview 👏
Great interview. Love these old timers. I’d like to hear the kind of stories they don’t share on the Internet... - Need to get Billy Waugh at the interview table. 🤙🏼🇺🇸
Been wanting to learn more about Mac v Sog, thank you for this video 👍🏻
Please keep doing videos like this helps me remember my Uncle love u guys and stricker is the man...
It's important to remember our heritage and strive to maintain the values and morals that our brothers and sisters have fought with. It will always be something we will do when we have the opportunity.
Always great to hear their stories.
Many thanks. I’m really interested in Vietnam history and the Vietnam War. Also known as “The American War”.
My father was SOG & originating “OG” Marine and one of the designers of that MAC “V” SOG Military Assault Command Special Observation Group “Viet Nam” specific patch.
Mad respect for those operators and the “chosin reservoir” Marines Sailors (USCG included) Soldiers and Airmen who are the savage Warriors that paved the way for all the Badassery that followed.
God’s speed-hell bound!
Blessings to all that served and who are serving!
Semper Fi!
Semper Paratus!
Beyond forever,
Axeman
I'm sure you meant "Military Assistance Command", as "Military Assault Command" is from "Star Trek"? The acronym, MACV SOG, stands for Military Assistance Command Vietnam - Studies and Observations Group.
Down votes must be Starbucks people. Thank you for your service gentlemen.
StarSucks! Liberal brown water from Seattle.
I was just thinking the same thing about the thumbs down.
I wish BRCC had shops like their shit competitors.
Or maybe not, I would spend money in there like a strip club.
I'm a Veteran of 2 foriegn wars and I'll march my happy ass into Starbucks any day of the week. Does that make me a liberal? This BRCC coffee is obviously a lot better but supporting or not supporting a brand doesn't make you patriotic, Signing your life to protect this country does. Respect to the men speaking and making this their mission and all that they've done.
@@jacobfarrell7171 I'm a Marine Veteran Infantryman so I could care less about what you think. Oh and I didnt show any disrespect towards those men. So I dont know why you have to get butthurt.
@@jacobfarrell7171
Nobody is saying it's not ok to be gay buddy.
This was amazing. I loved every minute of it. More please.
I'm just sitting in awe of these guys. They're the real deal. Respect coming from a former tanker (19K).
TOP NOTCH. MR..INTERVIEW & COFFEE...THANKS TO ALL WHO DID AND COULD..
God bless Tilt! The patience of a saint. Sgt Watkins must have interrupted him 100X and he didn’t say a word. Ha!
I could have listened to these lads talk for 1,000 hours. Thank you for giving them a platform to speak and share their life lessons and sacrifice. Much appreciated!
Met Sgt Louis deseta many yrs ago lived next door to my mother in law. Quiet old man, with one hell of a history. MacV Sog. I was telling him about my time in Afghanistan and he said yes difficult ty for your service. Once I did research in the history of war I was floored. Great American heros
What an awesome experience one of the finest men ever made don’t know if you know but he volunteered for macvsog straight from his tour with the 173rd Airborne Brigade and he finally was officially recognized and given his green beret from sf command and official documentation that he is real legitimate sf I know tilt talked about it and said he was so happy and relieved to finally get what he deserved big brother Lou is a big brother I respect so much and such a humble guy who loves his brothers and thinks he served with heroes but big brother Lou is a hero too that’s so cool as a fellow afghan Iraq airborne infantry ranger veteran that you could have conversations with him man I wish I could’ve been there to here those talks you’re a special man I know you must cherish that time thanks for your service brother
Love hearing these old veterans tell their stories.
William Waugh (born December 1, 1929) is a former United States Army Special Forces soldier and Central Intelligence Agency paramilitary operations officer who served more than 50 years between the U.S. Army's Green Berets and the CIA's Special Activities Division (renamed Special Activities Center in 2016
Waugh enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1948, completing basic training at Fort Ord, California, in August of that year. He was accepted into the United States Army Airborne School and became airborne qualified in December 1948. In April 1951, Waugh was assigned to the 187th Airborne Regimental Combat Team (RCT) in Korea.
Shortly after the end of the Korean War, Waugh met two Special Forces members on a train in Germany, they informed him of openings for Platoon sergeants, shortly after he requested a transfer. He began training for the Special Forces. He earned the Green Beret in 1954, joining the 10th Special Forces Group (SFG) in Bad Tölz, West Germany.
As U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War increased, the United States began deploying Special Forces "A-teams" (Operational Detachment Alpha, or ODA, teams) to Southeast Asia in support of counterinsurgency operations against the Viet Cong, North Vietnamese and other Communist forces. Waugh arrived in South Vietnam with his ODA in 1961, and began working alongside Civilian Irregular Defense Groups (CIDGs) there, as well as in Laos.
In 1965, while participating in a commando raid with his CIDG unit on a North Vietnamese Army encampment near Bong Son, Binh Dinh province, Waugh's unit found itself engaged with much larger enemy force than anticipated. Expecting only a few hundred NVA, it was discovered that a force of Chinese regulars had joined the NVA Elite; combining for almost 4,000 soldiers. While he and his men attempted to retreat from the battle, Waugh received numerous severe wounds to his head and legs. Unconscious, he was taken for dead by NVA soldiers and left alone. Despite his injuries, with the assistance of his teammates Waugh was safely evacuated from the combat zone. He spent much of 1965 and 1966 recuperating at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C., eventually returning to duty with 5th Special Forces Group in 1966. He received a Silver Star and a Purple Heart (His 6th) for the battle of Bong Son.
At this time Waugh joined the Military Assistance Command-Vietnam Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG). While working for SOG, Waugh helped train Vietnamese and Cambodian forces in unconventional warfare tactics primarily directed against the North Vietnamese Army operating along the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
Prior to retirement from U.S. Army Special Forces service, Waugh was senior NCO (non-commissioned officer) of MACV-SOG's Command & Control North (CCN) based at Marble Mountain on the South China Sea shore a few miles south of Da Nang, Vietnam. Waugh held this Command Sergeant Major role during the covert unit's transition and name change to Task Force One Advisory Element (TF1AE). SGM Waugh conducted the first combat High Altitude, Low Opening (HALO) jump, a parachuting maneuver designed for rapid, undetected insertion into hostile territory. In October 1970, his team made a practice Combat Infiltration into the NVA owned War Zone D, in South Vietnam, for reassembly training, etc. Waugh also led the last combat Special reconnaissance parachute insertion by American Army Special Forces HALO parachutists into denied territory which was occupied by communist North Vietnamese Army (NVA) troops on June 22, 1971.
Waugh retired from active military duty at the rank of Sergeant Major (E-9) on February 1, 1972.
Prior to retirement, Waugh worked for the CIA's elite Special Activities Division, starting in 1961. After Waugh retired from the military, he worked for the United States Postal Service until he accepted an offer in 1977 from ex-CIA officer Edwin P. Wilson to work in Libya on a contract to train that country's special forces. This was not an Agency-endorsed assignment and Waugh might have found himself in trouble with U.S. authorities if it weren't for the fact that he was also approached by the CIA to work for the Agency while in Libya. The CIA tasked him with surveilling Libyan military installations and capabilities - this was of great interest to U.S. intelligence as Libya was receiving substantial military assistance from the Soviet Union at the time. This additional assignment quite possibly protected Waugh from prosecution after Wilson was later indicted and convicted in 1979 for illegally selling weapons to Libya.
In the 1980s he was assigned to the Kwajalein Missile Range in the Marshall Islands to track Soviet small boat teams (Naval Spetsnaz: Dolfin) operating in the area and prevent them from stealing U.S. missile technology. Some of his more critical assignments took place in Khartoum, Sudan during the early 1990s, where he performed surveillance and intelligence gathering on terrorist leaders Carlos the Jackal and Osama bin Laden with Cofer Black.
At the age of 71, Waugh participated in Operation Enduring Freedom as a member of the CIA team led by Gary Schroen that went into Afghanistan to work with the Northern Alliance to topple the Taliban regime and Al Qaeda at the Battle of Tora Bora. Waugh was in-country from October to December 2001. Waugh spent many years being both a "Blue Badger" (employee) and a "Green Badger" (contractor). He continues to work as a "Green Badger". It is unknown how many missions Waugh was involved in during his career.
In 1985, Waugh was again requested by the CIA for clandestine work. Before he took the offer, he decided to further his education, earning bachelor's degrees in Business and Police Science from Wayland Baptist University in 1987. He also earned a master's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a specialization in criminal justice administration (MSCJA) in 1988 from Texas State University (formerly Southwest Texas State), in San Marcos, TX.

You can feel the insane amount of respect Evan has for those two guys. This creates an amazing atmosphere. Awesome stuff, keep it up!
Awesome video! Thanks to all the warriors who keep this great country free.
Great episode! I wish more of our millennial youth could listen to this living history of heroism and patriotism. Respect to all our Vets and to those who currently serve.
Incredible story, written in blood! Thank you, we shall never forget the sacrifices you’ve made! God bless America! 🇺🇸
This is very cool Evan Thanks
