Publisher Description

It used to be said that the night belonged to Charlie. But that wasn't true where SEALs patrolled. For six months in 1970, fourteen men in Juliett Platoon of the Navy's SEAL Team One--incuding the author--carried out over a hundred missions in the Mekong Delta without a single platoon fatality. Their primary mission: kidnap enemy soldiers--alive--for interrogation.

_Grono_ ,

Decent read

I thought this book was pretty good. Very slow at times, but some of the more intense operations he writes about kept me reading till I couldn't anymore.

Thank you for your service, professionalism, and dedication. America needs many more men like you!
