Soldier of Fortune
March 1988
Soldier of Fortune, CO. 1988. Tear (bite?) to the rear cover, quite fine otherwise. Priced accordingly.
I can't say I remember a time when the US public was questioning whether we need airborne forces, but hey! The 80s were different. Some cool stuff within though, including:
"Soviet Photo Sniper" (Interesting piece on long range photography equipment that mysteriously turns up in Fiji.)
"Crater Reading" (Prescient piece about asymmetric warfare and computer targeted weaponry.)
"A Tale of Two Ambushes" (Harrowing report of a SoF correspondent almost getting merced in Cambodia.)
"Guerilla Gourmet" (Pretty much Skinner's "I came close to madness trying to find it here in the States, but they just can't get the spices right!" story)
A fun one even if the cover story is kind of baffling.
