DOWN RANGE(ISBN=9781400081011) 英文原版 115盘 下载 pdf txt 电子版 mobi snb docx

　　In America’s battle against al-Qaeda and their allies, the

goal of the Navy SEALs is to be the best guns in the

fight—stealthy, effective, professional, and lethal. Here for the

first time is a SEAL insider’s battle history of these Special

Operations warriors in the war on terrorism.

“Down range” is what SEALs in Afghanistan and Iraq call their

area of operations. In this new mode of warfare, “down range” can

refer to anything from tracking roving bands of al-Qaeda on a

remote mountain trail in Afghanistan to taking down an armed

compound in Tikrit and rousting holdouts from Saddam Hussein’s

regime. It could mean interdicting insurgents smuggling car-bomb

explosives over the Iraqi-Syrian border or silently boarding a

freighter on the high seas at night to enforce an embargo. In other

words, “down range” could be anywhere, anytime, under any

conditions.

In Down Range, author Dick Couch, himself a former Navy SEAL

and CIA case officer, uses his unprecedented access to bring the

reader firsthand accounts from the warriors in combat during key

missions in Afghanistan and Iraq. Couch creates a pulse-pounding,

detailed narrative of the definitive engagements of this war, while

painting an unusually intimate portrait of these warriors in the

field. The performance of the SEALs in difficult, changing

environments—in the heat of the Afghan desert, in the snow-packed

Hindu Kush, on the high seas, and in the urban chaos of Baghdad—has

been nothing short of extraordinary. The SEALs, coordinating with

other American forces, the CIA, and foreign special operations

units like the Polish GROM, have once more shown their genius for

improvisation and capacity for courageous action in leading the

fight against this new and vicious enemy.

The first battle history of its kind, Down Range is a

riveting close-up of some of America’s finest warriors in action

against a deadly foe.
