Today we honor Colonel Arthur "BULL" Simons and the brave men of Operation: IVORY COAST, the daring Special Operations raid and rescue deep behind enemy lines to rescue American POWS. Grey BULL Rescue pays homage to Colonel Simons’ leadership, bravery, ethos, creativity, tenacity, and warrior spirit.
The raid on Son Tay has been studied for decades as a case study on creativity, innovation, leadership, and out of the box thinking and planning. The team at Grey Bull Rescue emulates this ethos every day from daring jail breaks in Russia to operating behind enemy lines all over the world.
Colonel Simons was unconventional in all aspects of his career. He broke the mold always. That is why he was selected to plan, resource, design, and execute the seemingly impossible mission. Not only did he handle every facet of the mission, he personally LED his men on the mission. This is how Grey Bull Rescue does it!!! Always BOOTS ON GROUND. Always UNCONVENTIONAL. Always planned in painstaking detail.
Our team honors Colonel Arthur “BULL” Simons every day along with all the members of Operation: IVORY COAST including our good friend Terry Buckler, who was the youngest member of the team. Terry has been a mentor and inspiration to Bryan and Grey Bull Rescues leadership team.
