  1. Former Detachment “A” Member Interview – Sid Williams

    February 27, 2021 DetASnake

  2. This interview was conducted by The Team House hosts Jack Murphy and Dave Parke.

    Bob Charest served in Vietnam and with Special Forces Detachment A conducting the urban unconventional warfare missions in Berlin in the event that the Soviets ever invaded. In this episode we discuss Bob’s career bouncing between Vietnam, Thailand, and Berlin where he served in Project Sigma (which became MACV-SOG) where he did cross border ops into Cambodia, working for the CIA in Thailand, and doing clandestine sabotage ops in Berlin with Det A.
