Vintage Plaid & Military Chic

Of course after purchasing this vintage military, I had to look up the history.

I am wearing a Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG) vintage jacket. It was a highly classified, multi-service United States special operations unit which conducted covert unconventional warfare operations prior to and during the Vietnam War. Established on 24 January 1964, the unit conducted strategic reconnaissance missions in Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam), the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam), Laos, and Cambodia; carried out the capture of enemy prisoners, rescued downed pilots, and conducted rescue operations to retrieve prisoners of war throughout Southeast Asia; and conducted clandestine agent team activities andpsychological operations.

I am proud of every American, including my father, who has represented our miltary. May God continue to bless our country from its wounds of the past… and present.
