SpecOps13 / SpecOps-13 / SpecOpS-13, Different forms on different forums, You get the general Idea.
In 1972, I was trained to perform a mission in South East Asia. Set up long term electronic surveillance of Ho-Chi Mihn Trail in prep for the potential Operation Linebacker II. We had troops from most branches of the service involved. Quad redundancy of the Mission Specialists. It was that important. This could be a very long story but here's the short version. Of the 13 Mission Specialists sent in, only I came out. 13 because we had 4 squads, 4 per squad with one spare in case of whatever. All of us did go in. We also lost all but 2 of the Special Forces that were tasked with getting us in and out and all the native guides were killed. Of 32 U.S. Servicemen we lost 29. Since I'm the only one of 13 Mission Specialists to remain alive, I became SpecOps13 in honor of the other 12 who never came home.
Oh, BTW, we were officially never there and everything I just told you officially never happened. We did however assist in the deaths of nearly 100,000 Communist troops during Linebacker II.:sad2:
