Three members talk during the Special Operations Association Reunion, Las Vegas, 2013. The shirt at right is a souvenir of the previous year's gathering - SOAR XXXVI, held 22-26 October 2012 at The Orleans Hotel & Casino - and carries the association's motto, 'You have never lived until you have almost died,' above the POW/MIA emblem and the words 'You are not forgotten.' The prisoner-of-war and missing-in-action cause remains central to an association whose members served in MACV-SOG, where men were lost on cross-border operations that could not be publicly acknowledged.
