Frank Miller was one of my instructors at Recondo school 25th Infantry Division. He was one of nicest, calmest men I ever met. He described the action that earned him the MOH, he made it seem as though pure luck, rather than his heroic actions, was responsible for his and his team’s survival. He gave me his personal Ranger Handbook, I still keep it my bedside drawer. An unforgettable and humble hero. RIP, Sergeant Miller.

Master Sergeant Macus "Pappy" Reed also served with Frank Miller. Pappy served 5 tours from 1962 to 1971 These men were some of the original Special Forces Green Berets. Pappy died on Saturday, April 30, 2022 in Hawaii. I will miss him forever.

My pee-wee football coach was a decorated Vietnam era Green beret and he would sit with us after practice and tell us crazy stories from his deployments. He spoke with an extreme lisp as he was hit in the head with grenade shrapnel which destroyed part of his jaw. I am almost 50 and Gary Dale is still the most badass dude I've ever known. It was an honor to have known him.

I served with CSM Miller back in 1977-78 when I was assigned to D Troop, 2/9th Air Cavalry at H.A.A.F, Savannah, Ga. He was my platoon sergeant. CSM Miller inspired me to become a Special Forces soldier. It was one of the smartest decisions of my military career. May he rest in peace.

I was humbled to be a classmate of CSM Miller in Class 31 of the United States Army Sergeant Major Academy. His discussion of his combat experience is memorable mostly because of his concern for fellow soldiers. Thanks for commemorating an American treasure.

My dad is an Australian Vietnam veteran. I think him and his squadron just got some type of commendation for saving an American battalion from getting wiped out. Bit late but better than nothing i spose. He is still a fit old bastard

I was in junior high in 1970 and had a few friends that had older brothers in Vietnam. One of them has his name on the wall in DC. These men were truly American heroes no matter how poorly the press treated them. Jeremiah, thank you for this story and thank you for not using a robot narrator.

I can’t even imagine how men like that are capable of defeating the odds of survival in this type of situation and I am in awe of their heroism. Ty for your service to our country and the reason why we have been given the freedom of greatest country in the world. RIP Sergeant major Miller.

My father was in ‘Nam, rangers . Brave men, who have been mistreated by their government and their own people. Any veterans out there, some of us still support you, and are grateful. You are real superheroes

It’s funny how people respect sports professionals and honor them with the title of hero, Franklin D Miller is a true HERO, and earned the title on the battlefield!
Much respect,

I was in Kontum with Miller. A very close friend of mine, Robert Clark Brown (Brownie) was his second in command (1-1) on that mission. Just after they inserted there was a detonated mine. All team members we’re serous wounded. Miller had sucking chest wound. They were surrounded by NVA. Each team member had 50 twenty round magazines. When when the hatchet force arrived Miller was unconscious, he had only two magazines left from the entire team in the late afternoon. Brownie said Miller kept coming back and telling him that the NVA will kill them but he was going to kill a bunch those bastards first. After Vietnam, Brownie and I were in the SF Reserves for another 20 years. He earned a pHD in Biochemistry and worked for Baxter Labs in Chicago. Millers story is the greatest I have ever heard for survival. God bless him and all the other SOG warriors. Garland Lee (medic)

I'm not a veteran, my father was a Vietnam vet, along with all my uncles and my grandfather a WWII veteran, but men like these are the reason we always played army when we were little, moral value was so more evident then, thank you to all veterans, there is still many who value the commitment that was given❤️💯

I cannot let these comments pass without a mention of my best friend, Sgt John L. Cropp. Two tours in the central highlands, based out of Huy, from 66 to 69. First as 101st, then as a ranger, going places " we didn, t go" and doing things "we didn't do". He succumbed to the effects of the stuff that " only kills plants" about 7 years ago. RIP John, I can never forget ( don't want to )

I’ve had the honor of meeting two Medal of Honor recipients and they were both very humble and soft spoken men. Very nice guys.

His writing voice was so down to earth. So humble. And says “dude” a lot. Just a regular guy who was an absolute beast in the woods. He loved being in Vietnam so much they had to declare him section 8, drug him and strap him to a gurney for the flight home, where they said “oh, actually you’re fine. We just knew you wouldn’t leave voluntarily.” I loved that book. Thanks for sharing.

I spoke to him when he worked at the VA. He was very personable and funny. He recommended a book, but never mentioned that he authored it. Very humble guy. I had a great conversation with him, and have always remembered him. There is a plaque on the wall in the VA in St Pete.

I was stationed at DaNang and part of air force rescue and recovery. When we weren't rescuing downed pilots we would transport macv sog, green beret and killer units of the 101st airborne up north into Loas and into Cambodia. These men have my greatest admiration. Total badasses and true great American patriots like Frank Miller.

I have a buddy that served many years in Afghanistan as a spotter and his advice for survival was always one word: Patience.
