Description and Table of Contents
Description
This is an account of Australia's elite regular special forces soldiers. It describes the formation of the SAS, its first (hitherto secret) task in Borneo during confrontation with Indonesia, and its successful operations in Vietnam between 1965 and 1971. The book reveals how, post-Vietnam, the SAS formed a crack counter-terrorist force while continuing to maintain its traditional skills of silent insertion deep behind enemy lines, surveillance, reconnaisance and raiding.
