Soldier of Fortune

January 1988

Soldier of Fortune, CO. 1988. Like new.

This is one of the earlier issues in this batch and includes pieces such as:

"From Mosquitia to Managua" (About grassroots support for the Contras...sure...)

"Spetsnaz Invades America (Paranoid fantasy [or not..?] about Soviet operatives working behind the lines in the USA)

"Banana Warrior" (On Herman Hanneken in Haiti [HHH])

"Guns Behind the Great Wall Pt. 4" (On the development of Chinese RPGs)

These older issues offer a bit more in terms of historical writing, and are laden with Soviet fear-mongering, but also a true sense of adventures as see in the piece on the contras. There's also an incredible ad feat. the many T shirts once available through Soldier of Fortune. Good archival document.
