Seals Top Secret: Operation Shoot and Scoot

by James Watson, Mark Roberts

They strike fast and clean; no fear, no mercy. Peerless warriors, they own the night and the jungles of this steaming hell called Nam. In the sea, in the air, on the land, they are the U.S. Navys best; a lethal weapon honed to razors sharpness on the hard, rough whetstone of war. They are SEALs. Give a SEAL a target. . .then get out of his way. The snafus only happen when others get involved--like incompetent officers and gung-ho CIA spooks. First Platoon is being called upon to clean up the Companys mess, as preparations get underway for a daring rescue of four CIA field officers from a heavily guarded POW jungle facility. But this time the enemy knows the SEALs are coming, and theyre ready to repel the assault with everything theyve got. A top-secret op has been blown to smithereens, leaving Americas best warriors with only one to strike sooner, harder, and to even the long odds with devastating fury and fire.
