By the close of the Vietnam War, the SEALs had established themselves as a living legend in combat. But the nature of combat was about to change. Learning to outmaneuver terrorists, and contain volatile situations, the SEALs have maintained their authority into the new millennium. This fully illustrated, comprehensive volume follows the life of the Navy SEALs from the aftermath of Vietnam- through the trials of Grenada, Bosnia, and Afghanistan-and looks toward the future with first-hand accounts as well as little known facts about the men, their weapons, and their missions.

One of the best accounts of the UDT/SEAL Teams in Vietnam!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This is the second volume of Kevin Dockery's collection of oral history of the Navy SEALs. His first volume, 'Navy SEALs: A History Of The Early Years' was released about a year ago. I believe a third and final volume about the Navy SEALs and their operations during the Persian Gulf conflict will be released next year. In part two of this fascinating history of the Navy SEALs Kevin Dockery again presents a collection of oral accounts by former UDT and SEAL team members. Famous, former, frogmen like Richard Marcinko (Commander, USN (Ret.)) and Governor Jesse Ventura are just some of the SEALs that recount their operations during the South East Asian conflict. My favorite feature about this second volume are the numerous rare black and white photographs depicting the UDT and SEAL team members in action. If you have enjoyed Chief James Watson's 'Point Man' and all the other Richard Marcinko books, then you will definitely want to read 'Navy SEALs: A History Part II: The Vietnam Years.
