Publisher Description

The story of America's elite military unit told by one of its founding members

They are the U.S. Army's most élite top secret strike force. They dominate the modern battlefield, but you won't hear about their heroics on CNN. No headlines can reveal their top-secret missions; and no book has ever taken readers inside-until now. Here, a founding member of Delta Force takes us behind the veil of secrecy and into the action-to reveal the never-before-told story of 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-D (Delta Force).

INSIDE DELTA FORCE

In this dramatic behind-the-scenes chronicle, Eric Haney, one of the founding members of Delta Force, takes us inside this legendary unit from the beginning. Here, for the first time, are details of the grueling selection process, designed to break the strongest of men, that singles out the perfect soldier, and then the years of training that turns him into the ultimate modern warrior that is the Delta Force Operator.

From fighting guerrilla warfare in Honduras to close VIP protection in Beirut, from rescuing missionaries in Sudan to the abortive attempt to extract American hostages from Tehran, and leading the way onto the island of Grenada, Eric Haney captures the daring and discipline that distinguish the men of Delta Force. Inside Delta Force puts the reader right at the heart of the action and gives a breathtaking glimpse of a life that is as driven, inspiring and terrifying as they come.

Eric L. Haney, Command Sergeant Major, USA (Ret.), served for more than twenty years in the United States Army's most demanding combat units: as a combat infantryman, a Ranger, and ultimately as a founding member of Delta Force. In his retirement, Haney has protected princes, presidents and CEOs alike.

Inside Delta Force

This book is a cut above the rest of the Special Forces memoir genre. Articulate, beautifully crafted, vivid, and peppered with often self-deprecating humor, Eric Haney has created a marvelous account of life in the elite ranks of Delta Force.

Well worth reading!

Work of Art

Eric Haney story of a humble U.S. Ranger to Delta Force is superb. Goes in depth to the selection process meant even to break even the strongest of men! Then takes you on a ride around the world of what it's like to be an Tier 1 Operator. From the jungles of Latin America to the streets of the Middle East. Delta Force rivals that of any elite force around the world including The British 22 SAS and Australian SASR. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the military. This is the type of book , when you open it, it's hard to put down. I have not read this book once but twice!!!
