Killer Elite: The Inside Story of America's Most Secret Special Operations Team Paperback – March 4, 2008

A little dry at first, but overall this is a great book about a little known unit that was present at many of the events that shaped the history of our military and the world we live in.

A behind the scenes look at secret forces that have increasing been tasked to take the fight to the enemies in their own backyard. A historical to current look at an elite fighting force that from humble beginnings has become a first line offense against terror.

Halfway through. Would prefer fiction at this point.

I am a Vietnam veteran and a bit opinionated where the Military is concerned! I find most of these books extremely pleasurable to read. This is one of them!

I have not finished reading this book yet, but it is for the people that want to be educated on the roots of the very special ops community. if you are looking for a blood guts and gore read, then you don't need to get this book. if you are looking to hear of the hardships these units go through and the paperwork our government makes them file in triplicate only to get lost along the way, just to go and complete a mission that shouldn't need more than an instant green light then this is a pretty good read. has everything from iran, beirut, and panama in the 80's up to present day missions. I am thoughroughly enjoying this book so far. and i'm sure anyone who appreciates gaining insight into things the general public are not entitled to know at the time of their going ons to give them a general idea of what might be going on behind the scenes today will enjoy it as well.

The history of the brave men and women is intriguing. It's a shame that so much time was spent with debating the value of the unit and its necessity.

A must read, especially if you have PTSD.

Interesting
