Synopsis: Those are just a few of the assignments of the men who, since World War II, have endured the toughest and most sophisticated training of any military unit in the world.
SEALs, UDT, FROGMEN is the first book to give the broad picture of the history and assignments of SEALs at peace and at war. If you want to know what SEAL training is really like, how SEALs work together on the Teams, what it was like to conduct a canal-side ambush in Vietnam, how the world’s largest demolition project was carried out, what it was like to survey a hostile beach after a clandestine lock-out from a submarine—it’s all here.
