The magazine, which has always been unapologetically pro-military and anti-communist, tells the stories of military veterans and mercenaries in combat. As the publisher of Soldier of Fortune magazine, he has been something of a lighting rod for both the left and right wing of the political spectrum. I at least partially blame Bob Brown for this.īrown has always been one of the more controversial figures in the Special Operations community. When I graduated High School I knew I had to join the military and try to get into one of these units. The stories about Special Forces soldiers in Vietnam and mercs rolling around El Salvador made an impression on me, along with all the books I read about LRRP/Rangers, SEALs, MACV-SOG, and other American men who fought and died in the Vietnam War. I grew up reading Soldier of Fortune magazine, which probably doesn’t surprise anyone who knows me.
