LTG William P. Tangney 1945 - 2026

Looks like we lost General Tangney last week. He was the Commanding Officer of 3rd Battalion, 5th SFG in '85 and '86.

We used to call him 'Article Bill'. Thought he was a pretty intelligent man but was never a strong fan of his. He did tell us a few interesting stories about when he was at Command and Control South, MACVSOG.

His seat at the table, now secured. Not many MACV-SOG guys left...
