John Plaster
 

[QUOTE=WGH0922;1058635230]RIP Colonel. One of the best military books I ever read was SOG, authored by John Plaster in the late 90's. Colonel Howard was mentioned numerous times.[/QUOTE]

Never had the honor of meeting COL Howard that I recall, but did meet John Plaster years ago while at a range and he was the guest of honor for a shoot. He spoke about how at the time SFC Howard was the bravest man he ever met and gave several examples from his Vietnam heroism. A speech I will not forget. RIP Warrior.

He WAS the real life John Rambo. That is for sure. A warrior's warrior.
