Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The full title of this book is US SPECIAL FORCES: AIRBORNE RANGERS, DELTA & U.S. NAVY SEALS. It is a compilation of three books previously published by Motorbooks. Each book is heavily illustrated. The Rangers book is by Alan & Frieda Landau, the DELTA book is by D.M. Giangreco & Terry Griswold, the SEALs book is by Hans Halberstadt.
Of the three books, I am particularly impressed by the work of Giangreco and Griswold. Unlike the Rangers and SEALs, DELTA has been kept shrouded in such secrecy, that most written accounts about it are loaded with inaccuracy. These authors have written a very informed text and added some great photos.
They provide a discussion of DELTA's history, a look at its weapons and equipment, what goes into making a DELTA trooper, rotary and fixed-wing assets used by DELTA, and conclude with two chapters on DELTA's work in Desert Shield/Storm, especially hunting Iraqi Scuds.
If you want an informed picture of US special operations capabilities, check out this book.
