Hathcock only once removed the white feather from his bush hat while deployed in Vietnam. During a volunteer mission days before the end of his first deployment, he crawled over 1,500 yards of field to shoot a PAVN General. He was not informed of the details of the mission until he accepted it. This effort took four days and three nights, without sleep, of constant inch-by-inch crawling. Hathcock said he was almost stepped on as he lay camouflaged with grass and vegetation in a meadow shortly after sunset. At one point he was nearly bitten by a bamboo viper, but had the presence of mind to avoid moving and giving up his position. As the General exited his encampment, Hathcock fired a single shot that struck the General in the chest, killing him.
Hathcock estimated that he had killed between 300 and 400 enemy personnel during his time in the Vietnam War.
In January 1987, a Soviet helicopter reconnaissance unit spotted a group of armed men on three motorcycles. “When they saw our choppers they stopped and started shooting at us and fired two missiles… The pilots made a maneuver and lowered the helicopters… The Mi-24s were covering us from above and we started fighting after leaving the chopper,” recalled Lieutenant Vladimir Kovtun. He and four other soldiers won the battle against the mujahedeen thanks to the air support. After the skirmish, they searched the enemy and discovered a Stinger and its technical documentation. For years this was believed to be the first time the Soviet came into possession of the missile launcher. In total, Soviet forces managed to capture 8 sets of FIM-92 units in the Afghan conflict.
