A gripping first-hand account of the combat operations and life of a member of the secretive and elite South African Special Forces, known as ‘Recces’.South African Special Forces, known as the ‘Recces’, are an elite group of soldiers that few can aspire to join. Shrouded in secrecy due to the covert nature of their work, the legendary Recces have long fascinated, but little is known about how they operate. Now one of this select band has written a tell-all book about the extraordinary missions he embarked on and the nail-biting action he experienced in the Border War. Shortly after passing the infamously grueling Special Forces selection course in the early 1980s, Koos Stadler joined the so-called Small Teams group at 5 Reconnaissance Regiment. This sub-unit was made up of two-man teams and was responsible for numerous secret and highly dangerous missions deep behind enemy lines.With only one other team member, Stadler was sent to blow up railway lines and enemy fighter jets in the south of Angola. As he crawled in and out of enemy-infested territory, he stared death in the face many times.Koos' book: https://www.amazon.com/Recce-Small-Missions-Behind-Enemy/dp/1612004040Today's Sponsors: ?A-TAC FITNESS(Veteran owned and operated)https://www.ATACFITNESS.comUse the promo code "TEAM10" for 10% off!Selection Starts Here.Redacted Coffee Company(Veteran founded and employee owned)https://REDACTEDCOFFEE.com/Who do you love more? Use the promo code TEAMJACK or TEAMDAVE for 20% off your order!Thanks for supporting the companies that support the show!For all bonus content including 2 Bonus episodes per month PLUS hours of bonus segments with our guests...Subscribe to our Patreon!?https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseTeam House merch: https://teespring.com/stores/my-store-10474963Social Media Links: The Team House Instagram:https://instagram.com/the.team.house?utm_medium=copy_linkThe Team House Twitter:https://twitter.com/TheTeamHousePodJack’s Instagram:https://instagram.com/jackmcmurph?utm_medium=copy_linkJack’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/jackmurphyrgr?s=21Dave’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/dave_parke?s=21Team House Discord: https://discord.gg/wHFHYM6SubReddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheTeamHouse/Jack Murphy's memoir "Murphy's Law" can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/Murphys-Law-Journey-Investigative-Journalist/dp/1501191241The Team Room Reading Room (Amazon Affiliate links): https://jackmurphywrites.com/the-team-room-reading-room/Intro music by https://www.youtube.com/user/RemixSampleWant to sponsor the show?Email: ?Deetakos@gmail.com#SouthAfricanSpecialForces #Recces #teamhouse
