The Wars of the Green Berets: Amazing Stories from Vietnam to the Present

By Robin Moore, Michael Lennon and Scott Neil

Action-packed stories of the army’s legendary special forces fighters from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Hunt for Bin Laden.
 
Since their inception, the Green Berets have become legends of the military world, moving behind enemy lines to cause havoc and build resistance wherever possible. Their heroic exploits are a constant reminder of those who give all for their country.
 
Here, the bestselling author of The French Connection teams up with a special ops staff officer to offer combat stories based on true events, shared with them by men who wear the beret. They will take you from firefights on the Cambodian border during the Vietnam War to the streets and alleyways of Iraq today, show what it was really like to patrol the streets of Mogadishu in the days of Black Hawk Down, reveal the horrors that were commonplace in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq during the first Gulf War, and drop you into the blasted landscape of Afghanistan in search of the Taliban.
 
An up-close view of special operations warfare, The Wars of the Green Berets continues the gripping saga of Moore’s classic bestseller The Green Berets.
