Rangers, Green Berets, SEALs, Delta Force, LRRPs, Force ReconтАФ
and the struggle of the best and the bravest to keep America free
TheyтАЩre some of the toughest and most highly trained fighting men in the worldтАФgoing where no ordinary soldier would go and doing what no ordinary soldier would dare. Outnumbered and outgunned, operating in small teams of five or six-deep in enemy territory far from help, they rely on their wits, their skills, and each other to get out alive.
Blood Warriors is a penetrating, no-holds-barred account of the training, missions, and history of the military elites who mold AmericaтАЩs most dangerous and highly skilled warriors . . . from the navyтАЩs SEALs and the Marine CorpsтАЩ Force Reconnaissance to the U.S. ArmyтАЩs Delta Force, Rangers, and Special Forces. HereтАЩs an in-depth look at each unitтАЩs methods and standards: whatтАЩs required and what it takes to survive and succeed. Whether gathering intelligence, capturing prisoners, executing raids and ambushes, or just creating havoc in enemy territory, these men know that death is their constant companionтАФand one small misstep could mean body bags for everyone. Maybe thatтАЩs why America calls them heroes.
