Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. 431, [1] pages. Map. Glossary. Index. DJ has slight wear and soiling. The top-secret missions of a Special Forces veteran are revealed for the first time in this memoir of perilous adventure--from behind-enemy-lines missions in Laos t…o a secret strike force heading toward the Cuban missile crisis. Sergeant Major Joe R. Garner served for twenty seven years in the U.S. military, including twenty-one hears of continuous active duty in the Special Forces. He received the Bronze Star, the Air Medal, and numerous other medals, including decorations from the governments of Indonesia, the Republic of South Vietnam, and Laos. Avrum M. Fine was a television writer and also a film editor. Derived from a Kirkus review: A gung-ho account of 27 years in Special Forces. Garner, by his own account, is something of a legend. He begins his own tale with his Special Forces (SF) training days at Fort Bragg in 1958, a period characterized by secrecy, training specializations, and tight-lipped macho toughness. Ten years later, in Vietnam and Laos, he was at first disappointed to see no front-line action for a year and even more peeved to be assigned the duty of taking care of Vietcong POWs. This section of the book is one of its most interesting. The SF men are first trained to withstand enemy torture themselves: In one exercise recruits were forced into steel boxes with a few inches of putrid water for hours and days on end. Later, Throughout this book there are fascinating glimpses of what it was like to be part of a unit. For aspiring soldiers or readers with little interest in larger political themes. It's a pretty gripping account of dirty war. Simon Metz (Jacket photograph). Polly Donnelly St (illustrator).

Hardcover. First edition. First printing [stated]. Sewn binding. Paper over boards. 431, [1] p. Map. Glossary. Index. For twenty-seven years of war and peace, Joe R. Garner served his country as a Special Forces soldier. Code Name: Copperhead details his involvement in over two decades of overt and covert operations. Garner serv…ed in Southeast Asia as part of the MACVSOG (Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, Studies and Observation Group), the most highly classified military operation of the war. He secretly armed and trained the Royal Laotian Army against the North Vietnamese and Pathet Lao in 1961 under the command of the legendary Colonel "Bull" Simons. He led top-secret missions behind enemy lines as part of the STRATA (Short Term Reconnaissance and Target Acquisition) operations. Code Name: Copperhead details Garner's experiences-from free-falling with a nuclear device strapped to his back to training Special Forces soldiers to survive interrogation. However, Code Name: Copperhead is more than an account of undercover operations around the globe. Very good in very good dust jacket. DJ has slight wear and soiling.
