MACV-SOG Personnel Display Captured Enemy Pennant, Gene McCarley Collection (Operation Tailwind Era)
American servicemen display a captured enemy pennant, likely taken during a MACV-SOG cross-border reconnaissance mission into Laos. This image comes from the collection of Eugene 'Gene' McCarley, ground force commander of the classified 1970 Operation Tailwind, whose team's exploits later earned Medal of Honor recognition for medic Gary 'Mike' Rose.
