It has been my great privilege recently to meet a true gunfighter. Robert “RJ” Thomas is one of the original Navy SEALs. He found himself in a gunfight at Ha Tien Republic of Vietnam in March 1969. At the time, Navy SEALs were classified elite extensions of the Navy Underwater Demolition Teams: ST-1 in Coronado, California and ST-2 in Little Creek, Virginia. Despite attempts at keeping the mission of the SEAL Teams classified, the NVA placed a $10,000 bounty for the killing or capture of one of the “Men with Green Faces.”
