- During the Vietnam War, Dale was a highly decorated Green Beret who served three years as a commando in the famous SOG program, whose mission involved extremely dangerous raids far behind enemy lines. This unit received more decorations and suffered higher rates of casualties than any American unit since the American Civil War. On one of these raids, Dale earned the first of several purple hearts as his right hand was mangled by a burst of machine gun fire. It is ironic that he became a sculptor, a field in which one’s hands are so critical.
Dale Hanson is an accomplished sculptor who has led a life of adventure and enjoyed numerous accomplishments. He is a black belt martial artist, an author, a pilot of fixed wing and glider airplanes, has flown aerobatics and is a Special Forces underwater diver. He is a disabled veteran and a member of MENSA.

I was infuriated listening to the POW stories. This country has a funny way of turning their backs to the people who gave everything for them.
This man understood the evil of communism. Sure wish all Americans felt that way today.
Iam 75years young served in sog with John plaster who is also 75years and alive . Our mission was to capture a truck driver to gain intelligence on the truck stops on the ho chi min trail in laos and Cambodia. We went into laos to capture the truck driver. It was a successful mission. John Plaster has written 2 great books about sog and published a picture book about sog . I highly recommend these books. You can gopgle John plaster. Truly a hero he retired as a major and started a sniper school.
My dad passed away in 2006 i really miss him he went through basic at Fort Polk in 1953 he did four years full time and 4 reserves he spent the 4 years when he was full-time in Germany he loved the military, my dad went in after his father passed away he left his twin behind and he always felt bad about him staying at home lol he broke his leg sking in 1955 he was in like a mobile mash unit i think he also kept some generators going also. I miss my father i was 36 and hard headed when he passed away im 54 now and not nearly as hard headed id love to have a conversation with him now lol
The fact that this man LITERALLY was so equipped that he killed one of the largest global bad guys in the history of modern warfare for America but local police refuse to hire him is absolutely disgusting. I cannot even fathom how difficult that was.
Im a GWOt infantryman, we had 14 weeks of OSUT and then onto our unit. Thats where the real training, or advanced infantry training took place.
1.36 cheery admission that US SFs carried out war crimes and were covered up.
Mr. Hanson, American treasure.
Great Interview! My ol man was also an SF soldier, 173rd, and Ranger in Nam, He was also wounded twice and had a couple purple hearts with his Bronze Star, after losing his Eye,. He was medically retired... and was able to pull some favors & re-enlist back into the war , his story is so rare he was asked to write a book. He died from complications of Agent Orange in 2015, but his book is: Cyclops in the Jungle; A One-Eyed LRP in Vietnam. My mom still collects royalties to this day for it. He is missed.
I hope every American would watch the documentary by David Hoffman called “Magnificent Vietnam Vet discusses battle, . . .” You won’t forget this man. I can’t post link-it would be removed.
Never forget these brave men and women who fought in the Vietnam war.
Mr.Dale Hanson is a true American HERO…..
Dale is top tier guy!! Kind as they come but deadly as cornered badger!!
God bless you brother, I flew with the 195th AHC, we were at times your aviation support.
My grandfather and uncles were in Rangers who were sent behind lines only two returned but missions were accomplished, they were acknowledged well on the reservation
One of the greatest interviews that The Team House has ever done. Love the in-studio interviews. Thank you for this!
Working in a loud environment with paintball guns, those people with 'the nerve' for it revealed themselves. All my friend needed was a tap on his shoulder and we went automatic mode. Later in Iraq, rockets scared the hell out of me, but I went to see if someone needed help. Thank you Dale.
God bless you Dale Hanson you are a Warrior and a Patriot
man I can feel Dale so well when he told the story about saying goodbye, such a humble and nice guy in this interview, I hope his guys are well and their families are ok
I'm in awe. The courage, intelligence and ingenuity in that room is off the charts.
