In the Combat Zone: Special Forces Since 1945 (1998) By Robin Neillands
 
The Green Berets. The Navy SEALs. The Delta Force. The British SAS. The Israeli Mossad. Almost every country has a special force unit in its military. But what do they do, whom do they recruit, and how do they train? Neillands, renowned mil. historian and himself a former Royal Marine Commando, tells the story of special forces since the end of WW2, where possible in the words of the soldiers themselves. He describes the operational successes and failures, advances in military technology crucial to special force effectiveness, and the achievements, challenges and exploits of a wide range of special force units. In a world plagued by terrorism and small wars, this book is quite timely. B&W photos.
