Russell wrote the plans creating MACV-SOG and he was SOG's first Commanding Officer (1964-1966). As a unit, SOG received more Medal of Honor and other awards for heroism than any other unit fighting in that War. Vietnam Veterans from all units were some of the bravest and courageous warriors in American history. Today, there is a major roadway going through Fort Bragg, NC named in Fred Zabitosky's honor. May God Bless these brave Americans and keep our current soldier's in His Grace. My dad, Colonel Clyde R.

He was my hero and was very humble about the whole medal of honor issue. I am sure he smiles down from heaven when he sees us read things on the internet about his experiences and enjoys that he is not forgotten. Thank you all for that. I am so proud and grateful for what he and all soldiers have done and still do for our country. Miss you Butchie. Sharon My brother Fred (or Butch as we in the family called him) was a great man.
