Book Overview
This handbook reveals the techniques and tactics that make the U.S. Army Special Forces some of the most elite and highly skilled soldiers in the world. Trained to succeed in specialized operations such as reconnaissance, unconventional warfare, and counter-terrorism, these soldiers undergo a rigorous selection process and operate under the principles of self-sufficiency, stealth, speed, and teamwork. Here readers will discover how guerrilla forces differ from special forces and how unconventional warfare relates to both; how to conduct a raid; how to improvise explosive devices; and how special forces carry out air operations.

Great Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I love this book. It's condensed, interesting and thought stimulating. I guess some of the novelty comes from knowing that people have actually used this book to liberate peoples we aren't aware of. The book is interesting, but some of the information is definitely sensitive and otherwise strictly for educational purposes.
cut & dry

This book is everything that the review says it is. The best thing about military handbooks it that they get right to the nitty gritty without all the fluff and bull that are in other books; they simply give the information in the most straight forward and easy way to understand. This handbook has a lot of illustrations and graphs. Some highlights are the ground-air emergancy code chart and the weapons, survival, and first aid manuals. Plus there are some stuff in here that not all people should have knowledge of, such as demolitions. Just so you know, since it's not mentioned elsewhere, this handbook comes small and pocket size.
