SBS : The Invisible Raiders (English Edition)

SBS : The Invisible Raiders (English Edition)

Shrouded in secrecy, the Special Boats Squadron, the SBS, has always been the subject of much conjecture and speculation.

An elite, semi-clandestine military establishment, their reputation is as formidable as that of their Army counterpart, the SAS.

They can infiltrate enemy harbours, marine installations and coastlines held by hostile troops. Armed with the most sophisticated weapons and communications systems, their objectives are as carefully defined as a surgeon’s blade: sabotage, kidnap, reconnaissance or, that vital but rarely-recognised contribution to warfare, intelligence gathering.

Following the format of the bestselling Who Dares Wins, James Ladd has succeeded in penetrating beyond the mythology to reveal hitherto little-known aspects of Britain’s premier seaborne ‘special force’. He outlines its activity during the Second World War and traces its impact on conflicts throughout the rest of the 20th century.

James D. Ladd was a Royal Marine before he became a journalist and a widely respected military historian. He was the author of several leading military books including Commandos and Rangers of World War II and Royal Marines 1919-1980: An Authorised History. He died in 2006.
