About this product
Product Information
Amid the chaos of the 1979 Iranian Revolution, zealous revolutionaries seized the US Embassy in Tehran, taking 53 Americans hostage. Running out of options, President Carter ordered the newly formed First Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta - or "Delta Force" - to conduct a vast, complex rescue mission. It required a nighttime refueling operation in a hostile desert; a small, unreliable force of helicopters to Lift Delta into and around the Tehran area; and Army Rangers to simultaneously seize an airfield for the evacuation. All this had to be done by a combat unit on its first mission, with an ad hoc force of pilots and support personnel who barely had time to train for the operation. With input from the men involved, declassified documents, and detailed reconstructions of the planned operation, this authoritative new history explains the raid's background, the plans, where it went disastrously wrong, and how the lessons that were brutally learned at Desert One Led directly to the creation of the modern, spectacularly capable Special Operations Command.
