Reflections of a Warrior (Electronic book text)


PFC Franklin Miller arrived in Vietnam in March 1966, was sent straight to a Reconnaissance Platoon, and saw his first combat. So began an odyssey that would make him into one of the most feared and respected men in the Special Forces elite, who made their own rules on the most hazardous frontiers of war. In the exclusive world of the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, Studies and Observation Group (MAiV- SOG), Miller ran missions deep into enemy territory under the most adverse conditions--to gather intelligence, snatch prisoners and to kill. Leading small bands of hard-as-nails Montagnard and Meo tribesmen, he was as fierce and fearless as these primitive hunters--and he fought Army policy to stay in combat for six tours. On a top secret mission in 1970, Miller and a handful of men, all critically injured, held off the NVA in an incredible Alamo-like stand--for which he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. When his time in Southeast Asia ended, he had also received the Silver Star, two Bronze Stars, and Air Medal and six Purple Hearts.
