Editorial Reviews
Product Description:
The book ranges from their early roots and operational history to todays intense training program, covering new squadrons geared to the war on terror; from their arsenal of weapons and equipment to their sophisticated aircraft, like the AC-130U “Spectre” gunships bristling with 25mm chaingun, 40mm Bofors and 105mm howitzer cannon and the correspondingly lethal MH-53 Pave Low helicopter.
Customer Reviews
Pretty good by Christopher S. Maurer
This book was pretty good, but a good portion of the information you can find on the internet. There’s still a bunch of info anybody can get out of this book, and I definitely learned a few things.
As in depth and accurate as the DOD will allow by
While my son is pictured in the book in his capacity as an STS operator, there’s only so much he can tell me without violating his security clearance. He cannot discuss with whom he operates, where he’s going/been or what he’s done. However, from what he has been able to say, this book is right on. It’s been my window to his world. The multiple skill sets they possess, the types of operations conducted, and the the levels of dedication and courage they display are amazing. There names and faces will only be known after something went wrong. Read it! Believe it!

Excellent Information by
This book is very informative to anyone looking to get into the world of Air Force Special Tactics Teams. Allows you to see what the jobs are of these brave individuals, and what you must endure during the riggors of earning the title of combat controller or a “pj”. Although I do believe the past standards in this book are the older ones and they have been changed.
