A History of the SAS

Meer over het boek

In 1941 Operation Squatter, part of the British disinformation campaign in North Africa, was the first mission for the newly formed SAS. It was an unmitigated disaster, but they soon rallied and became one of the world’s most fearsome elite fighting forces. Major General Strawson tells the story of the corps’ first four decades, from campaigns in the Middle East through to the Iranian embassy siege and the Falklands War.
