Special Forces: A Guided Tour of U.S. Army Special Forces Tapa blanda - 2001

de Tom Clancy; John Gresham

Tom Clancy brings his flair for military fiction to the real thing and takes readers closer than most civilians have ever been to the operatives on which our national security depends. "Special Forces" is a new addition to Clancy's bestselling military nonfiction library as he takes a first-hand look at the history, hardware, and heroics of today's most lethal men and women, including the Green Berets. Maps, diagrams & photos.


Resumen

They are sent to the world's hot spots-on covert missions fraught with danger. They are called on to perform at the peak of their physical and mental capabilities, primed for combat and surveillance, yet ready to pitch in with disaster relief operations. They are the Army's Special Forces Groups. Now follow Tom Clancy as he delves into the training and tools, missions and mindset of these elite operatives.

Special Forces includes:

  • The making of Special Forces personnel: recruitment and training
  • A rare look at actual Special Forces Group deployment Exercises
  • Tools of the trade: weapons, communications and sensor equipment, survival gear
  • Roles and missions: a mini-novel illustrates a probable scenario of Special Forces intervention
  • Exclusive photographs, illustrations and diagrams
Plus: an interview with General Hugh Shelton, USA, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (and the former Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Special Operations Command-USSOCOM)

Primera línea

Most of us probably think of them as Green Berets-just like the song says.

Acerca del autor

A little more than thirty years ago Tom Clancy was a Maryland insurance broker with a passion for naval history. Years before, he had been an English major at Baltimore's Loyola College and had always dreamed of writing a novel. His first effort, The Hunt for Red October, sold briskly as a result of rave reviews, then catapulted onto the New York Times bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it "the perfect yarn." From that day forward, Clancy established himself as an undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. He passed away in October 2013.
