Elite special forces - Chris McLeod

Warfare isn't won and lost by large armies opposing each other on big battlefields. Over the past century, the use of small groups of elite special-forces has become increasingly effective. In Elite Special Forces: 75 Years of Covert Action, author Chris McLeod details some of the most daring and thrilling missions conducted by these groups. That includes the incredible story of how Seal Team Six was able to infiltrate a compound in Pakistan and kill the world's most wanted man, Osama Bin Laden, all while the US President watched on nervously back in Washington. And many other countries also have their own special elite forces. In the United Kingdom, it's the SAS. In Russia, it's Spetsnaz. There are so many elite special forces that all have incredible stories to tell.
