SEALs are the Needles in the Enemy's Haystack

Tulsa World's review can't be topped about this book: "Makes 'RAMBO' seem like a Harlequin romance."

An action packed chronological tale of SEALs

I thought this was a great book. It is a detailed report of what really happened over in Vietnam and who was doing it. This book really tells how it happened, when it happened, and why it happened. This is a must read for anyone even remotely interested in unconventioinal warfare.

A highly accurate anthology of SEAL operations in Vietnam.

"SEALs" is the book version of a historical master's thesis written by Tim Bosiljevac, a highly respected career SEAL officer (and former enlisted Army Ranger). His work is essentially a diary of SEAL operations in Vietnam. It moves chronologically through the arrival of UDTs in the early 60's to the departure of US forces in 1975. The book's matter of fact description of numerous operations, taken from SEAL Team logs, allows the reader to appreciate the complexity of the intelligence gathering systems employed by the SEALs to generate their own target lists. The detailed descriptions of equipment carried and the synopses of patrol orders allows will appeal to Soldiers interested in finding out how the "best of the best" prepared and executed missions in the Rung Sat. This book is highly recommended for current and former Special Operators.
