This graphic tee design is in commemoration of the Bright Light teams that operated in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos to rescue downed pilots, support recon teams in duress, or bring home the dead and wounded. These missions were incredibly dangerous and incurred many casualties. One of the first Bright Light missions was believed to be during Operation Crimson Tide in 1966. SOG members from FOB-2 were tasked with a Bright Lights mission to rescue an American POW being held by the Viet Cong. Unfortunately, part of the SOG team infiltrated right into a large group of Viet Cong and NVA; this resulted in the loss of the entire 3rd Platoon.
This shirt brings remembrance to the bravery and selflessness of the teams that took on these dangerous Bright Light Missions.
