Synopsis
- Exciting full-color photographs and informative sidebars - A timeline of key events in each organization's history - Full-Color Photographs - Diagrams - Maps - Table of Contents - Index - Bolded Glossary Terms, This book introduces readers to the elite special operations forces of each branch of the U.S. military. Historical information highlights the colonial scouts used during King Philip's War, Captain Robert Rogers' special forces during the French and Indian War, Colonel Thomas Knowlton, Brigadier General Daniel Morgan, and Colonel Francis Marion's rangers and irregulars during the Revolutionary War, the Union and the Confederacy's rangers during the American Civil War, the Army Rangers formed during World War II, and the importance of special forces during the Cold War, the Vietnam War, and the wars against terrorism. Readers will learn about the varied but intense training required of the few who qualify to become special forces, including navigation, first aid, parachuting, and weapons training involving pistols, sniper rifles, machine guns, explosives, hand grenades, and even night vision goggles, and their continued emphasis on excellence. Other chapters cover individual groups, including specialties such as desert and mountain training of the Army Rangers, missions, duties, and requirements such as foreign language skills of the Green Berets, the history and secrecy behind Delta Force and their job preventing terrorism, the advanced weapons and combat training, underwater and hostage rescue missions, and history of the Navy SEALs, the amphibious actions and unique perspective of Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance, and the close air support, search and rescue missions, and close work with Army Rangers and Navy SEALs of Air Force Special Operations. Full-color photographs, sidebars, fun facts, a graphic timeline, a glossary, and an index accompany this easy-to-read text.

This book was described as “good” condition. The spine is cracked, the pages are yellowed and the cover is torn. In addition, it took four days to get the book to the post office, while shipping only took two. The actual packaging was well done I just felt the delay was excessive especially for a $5 shipping fee whereas other books I’ve purchased recently are shipped timely and for free.

Hi! Sorry we missed the cracked spine, we always except returns and will give a full refund especially if we missed something. The delay was because of Juneteenth, all post offices were closed. We processed the label the night before and when we went to the post office the next morning it was closed. Completely out of our control.
