Description

Leroy Thompson (au). “To liberate from oppression.” The Green Beret motto reflects the goal of this elite fighting force with a tradition of honor. This book about the Green Berets tells the inside story of that honorable tradition -- of working behind the scenes, & sometimes behind the lines, with U.S. allies in guerrilla warfare. Feel the grueling training -- scaling the heights of mountaintops & soaring with the jump school. Share the early visions of “Wild Bill” Donovan & Aaron Bank. Fly with Col. “Bull” Simons on the Son Tay Raid. Join Col. “Charlie” Beckwith on “Eagle Claw,” the ill-fated attempt to rescue the American hostages in Iran. 100s of rare photos, many never seen before, highlight the heart & soul of the Green Berets.
