Billy Waugh is still involved in Special Operations around the world. He lives in Florida.
Former U.S. Special Operations soldier Waugh recounts some of his activities from his time in service. He begins with descriptions of fighting in Vietnam and secret missions into Cambodia and ends with his time operating in Afghanistan as U.S. forces hunted Osama Bin Laden. He describes helping to train Libyan commandos, doing surveillance operations of Bin Laden in Sudan, and hunting for bombing suspect Carlos the Jackal (Ilich Ramirez Sanchez) in operations that led to his capture in Khartoum in 1994.
