- As 5th SFG(A) was leaving RVN in 1971, a number
of people were assigned to review historical
documents that were being packed for shipment or
destruction. Six copies of a command history of
Special Forces participation in the CIDG program
were compiled. We have located most parts of
these command histories from two of the
addressees. Three booklets have been thus far
produced, containing the histories of Companies
A, B and C, and the S-1, S-4, S-5, Engineer and
Signal sections. A CD ROM
version of this history includes the history
of Company D and the S-2 section, which in not in
the paper version. Thus far the S-3 annex is
still missing. Though the material is sketchy in
some parts, it represents the most comprehensive
overview of the role Special Forces played in the
CIDG program currently available.
