SAS ZERO HOUR: THE SECRET ORIGINS OF THE SPECIAL AIR SERVICE.
The SAS, Britainʼs elite Special Air Service Regiment, is one of the most revered and feared special-operations units in the world. Its high profile operations include the spectacular storming of the Iranian Embassy in London on 5 May 1980 and the hunt for Osama bin Laden in Southern Afghanistan following 9/11.
But where did it all begin? In SAS ZERO HOUR, Tim Jones tackles this fascinating question from a unique perspective.
Drawing extensively on primary sources, as well as reassessing the more recent regimental histories and memoirs, the author presents an account that identifies such notables as Dudley Clark, Archibald Wavell and Claude Auchinleck, among others, as significant influences in the formation of this formidable regiment.
