Didn't know this existed, thanks for posting @Cobalt-60. Just found a back issue copy online, blew the 15 bucks on it. Neat to have for the collection.

Thanks for posting. Back in the 80s, pre-internet, SOF was THE source of information about the worlds’s smaller wars. IIRC, SOF brought out the first 5.45mm ammo.
