Your memory is correct. They called him "Lông Trắng", which translates as "White Feather Sniper", due to his habit of wearing a white feather in the band of his boonie hat.o b juan wrote:Carlos Hathcock was Given the name White Feather by the NVA
If my old memory is correct
But I seriously doubt that any of the gun haters would know this fact, and even if they did, they couldn't claim any glory for their white feather without glorifying a great sniper in the process.......which is pretty funny if you think about it.
