Jack has returned from Vietnam after joining the Best Defense Foundation and eight MACV-SOG veterans on a powerful journey back to Southeast Asia more than 50 years after their service. The trip honored their sacrifice, recognized their legacy, and provided a meaningful opportunity for reflection and closure.
The gear in these pages comes from the real kit carried by small MACV-SOG Teams pushing “across the fence” into denied areas of Laos, Cambodia, and North Vietnam.
If you have read Carr’s earlier James Reece thrillers, this one takes us back to 1968 and the protagonists is Reece’s father, Tom Reece. He’s a character we know from the earlier books, but you certainly don’t need to know too much back story because enough is explained in Cry Havoc.
On August 4, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson reported attacks in the Gulf of Tonkin—an escalation that set America fully on the path to Vietnam. A decade of covert ops already smoldered: CIA sabotage, deniable raids, and, later, MACV-SOG missions in Laos and Cambodia. This secret war forges Tom Reece in Jack Carr’s CRY HAVOC.
