Additional Chosen Soldier: The Making of a Special Forces Warrior Information
|
In combating terror, America can no longer depend on its conventional military superiority and the use of sophisticated technology. More than ever, we need men like those of the Army Special Forces–the legendary Green Berets.
In Chosen Soldier, Dick Couch draws on nearly a year spent at Special Forces training facilities and offers an unprecedented view of the education of these men.
Following the experiences of one class of soldiers as they endure this physically and mentally exhausting ordeal, Couch spells out in fascinating detail the demanding selection process and grueling field exercises, the high-level technical training and intensive language courses, and the simulated battle problems that test everything from how well SF candidates gather operational intelligence to their skills at negotiating with volatile, often hostile, local leaders. Chosen Soldier paints a vivid portrait of an elite group, and a process that forges America’s smartest, most versatile, and most valuable fighting force.

What Customers Say About Chosen Soldier: The Making of a Special Forces Warrior:

Dick Couch does a great job bringing military training to the public eye. Thoroughly enjoyed.
The green berets train very different than Navy Seals but they also train for different kinds of missions as this book describes. I would definately recommend this book to any person interested in special forces or just as a nice read. This was another great book from Dick Couch. These special forces are the ones training guerilla forces to overthrow leaderships, they are all well equipped to perform their duties or eachothers duties and this book definately describes why. Again, another good book by Dick Couch. We constantly here about the Navy Seals but not much about the green berets. This book describes the pre training process all the way through their final training prior to real time deployments.
Great info and a great read if your interested in what it takes in SF training. While I do not have any first hand knowledge of Army SF training, this book provided what I consider to be a First-Class documentry.
De Oppreso Liber This book is a very well written, articulate description of how brave men become the ultimate warrior. A very good read that I highly recomend to all who wish to better understand the United States Army Special Forces Soldier and what it takes to earn the title.
You really felt a part of the class. Excellent imagery. I would definitely recommened this book to anyone enterested in Army special forces. Cons: With all military training books and DVD's some stuff was left out. Although he did a great job summarizing the whol journey.Pros: Really I can't say enough.
