This unlikely combination of classic instrument and iconic video game is as good a manifestation as any of Sos's constant desire to innovate in areas that the games industry en masse isn't bothered about: in the margins, the gaps between sense and spectacle, where imagination is unchecked because doing so is boring.

All other SOF assets had been either decommissioned or returned to the US. As a result of Operation Creek Action, which was completed in 1973, several extensive 'shuffles' took place. The 7th SOS was transferred from Ramstein AB to Rhein-Main AB. The 7th SOS's MC-130Es, code-named `Combat Talon', were no less mysterious and were also striking to look at with their matt black camouflage scheme and two large hooks on the nose. The 7th SOS's MC-130Es have been spotted in every corner of Europe.

Each university chapter of Students Offering Support conducts the Exam-AID program, which consists of 2-3 hour group review sessions held shortly before an exam. Exam-AID programs are taught by bright senior students who utilize SOS's unique teaching model to create an interactive learning environment. In addition to the review session, students are also provided with a take-home study guide to help them study for their approaching exams.

In 2005, SOS offered three more 1st year courses in business and calculus. With over 25 volunteer tutors and 100 members of the BUCS association, SOS tutored over 600 students and raised over $31,000 for Free the Children. Through Free the Children, SOS's charitable donation went towards providing accessible education to Kenyan children. This caught the attention of the Waterloo Record, which wrote the first article on the Exam-AID program.

From 1989 to 2014, the SOS's premier fundraising event was the ceremony awarding the Ella Award, named after its first recipient in 1989, Ella Fitzgerald. The last award was given in 2014 to Mike Love. The Ella Award was given to singers "...for their contribution to the world of music along with their dedicated efforts to benefit the community and worldwide causes". SOS held other events throughout the year to raise funds.

All of SOS's projects are not only funded, but also personally built, by SOS volunteers during annual outreach trips. Student volunteers travel to a community in Latin America at their own expense, spending approximately two weeks building their designated project. SOS volunteers work very closely with a local NGO within each community to ensure that the projects and trips are properly organized, and even conduct follow-ups with the target communities in the aftermath of completing a project.

Siegal, AM., Connolly, WG., The New York Times Manual of Style and Usage , Three Rivers Press, 1999, p. 24. Possessive plurals that also include apostrophes for mere pluralization and periods appear especially complex: for example, "the C.D.'s' labels" (the labels of the compact discs). In some instances, however, an apostrophe may increase clarity: for example, if the final letter of an abbreviation is "S", as in "SOS's" (although abbreviations ending with S can also take "-es", e.g. "SOSes"), or when pluralizing an abbreviation that has periods.

Operational control of the squadron resided with the Commander, Special Operations Task Force Europe (SOTFE) at Patch Barracks, Stuttgart-Vaihingen, West Germany. With the relocation of the 7406th to Greece, the 7th Special Operations Squadron was moved from Ramstein to Rhein- Main as one of the units shuffled as part of operation Creek Action. The 7406th's Hercules had been used for covert COMINT missions along the Eastern Bloc borders. The 7th SOS's MC-130Es, code-named Combat Talon, were no less mysterious and were also striking to look at with their matt black camouflage scheme and two large hooks on the nose.

On the night of 18 October 1972, a Royalist Commando Raiders team made a low level parachute drop from an Air America Twin Otter to secure a landing zone near Salavan. The following morning, the 21st Special Operations Squadron (21st SOS) began helilifting Groupement Mobile 42 (GM 42) into rice paddies adjoining the Salavan airstrip on its westward side. Although the first contingent landed without resistance, in a subsequent lift seven of the 21st SOS's CH-53s suffered battle damage. Air America had to pick up the airlift duties as the 21st SOS withdrew for repairs.

Wreck Of The Metamora SOS's province wide campaign to provide and maintain (80) mooring buoys which make it easy to identify and hold on the dive site, to SOS chapters and affiliated organizations began in 2005.“Before our mooring program, boats would drop anchor and end up pulling part of the wreck with them when they moved,” said Michael Hill, president of SOS. “Now, the most popular dive sites all have moorings.” In Georgian Bay, for example, the ship's boiler, which has been painted white and has a channel marker attached to it identifies remains of the wreck of the tug The Metamora, which sank near Pointe au Baril in Georgian Bay in 1907.

Although even today very little is known about this special unit, the mere fact that the USAF information service always answers 'no comment' to any questions about its role is sufficient to allow the tentative conclusion that clandestine operations are involved, with the squadron performing undisclosed missions under the direction of the DCS Operations of HQ USAFE. The 7th SOS's MC-130Es were spotted in every corner of Europe. These sightings were perhaps connected with NATO marine unit exercises with which the 7th SOS is also involved. One of the most bizarre sightings dates from January 1976 when a traveller from West Berlin saw a low-flying C-130 over the Transitstrasse, the transit route, near Magdeburg in the German Democratic Republic.

While recording in SOS's home stomping grounds in Atlanta, Georgia, on March 24, 1983, a freak snowstorm hit, grounding all flights from the city. The duo was scheduled to perform as a part of The Time in San Antonio at the Hemisfair Arena that night but couldn't make it.

Republic of Vietnam Air Force (VNAF) UH-1H lands during a combat mission in Southeast Asia in 1970 In October 1965, the United States Air Force (USAF) 20th Helicopter Squadron was formed at Tan Son Nhut Air Base in South Vietnam, equipped initially with CH-3C helicopters. By June 1967 the UH-1F and UH-1P were also added to the unit's inventory, and by the end of the year the entire unit had shifted from Tan Son Nhut to Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Force Base, with the CH-3s transferring to the 21st Helicopter Squadron. On 1 August 1968, the unit was redesignated the 20th Special Operations Squadron. The 20th SOS's UH-1s were known as the Green Hornets, stemming from their color, a primarily green two-tone camouflage (green and tan) was carried, and radio call-sign "Hornet".

The Ritibrücke at Ackersand was given a second span for the VZ. The Visp-Zermatt-Bahn (VZ) transferred the management of the line to the Suisse Occidentale-Simplon, as under that arrangement there was the possibility of using its staff elsewhere during the annual winter service interruption. This management agreement was approved by the SOS's successor company, the Jura-Simplon-Bahn (JS) and retained finally also by the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) until 1920. From the opening of the line onwards, passenger numbers continually increased, and after a short while were already significantly exceeding the predictions established at the time of the line's construction. Yet at the same time, the railway had to fight countless storms that again and again paralysed operations for days. The opening of the Gornergratbahn in 1898, the Simplon Tunnel in 1906 and the Lötschbergbahn in 1913 brought the Visp-Zermatt-Bahn further passengers.
