Casualties of War

War in the desert… 

The first generation of SEALs was forged in the steaming jungles of Vietnam, their deadly skills honed by combat. 

But jealousy brewing within the U.S. military bureaucracy threatened the future of the warrior elite, and short-sighted thinking forced them into battles that they couldn’t win. 

Now the opportunity has finally come for redemption, when the tanks of a ruthless Middle Eastern despot roll across the unprotected borders of a neighbouring nation. 

Here, in a world of blood and oil, a new generation of SEALs is going in first to fight on their terms — as hunter-killer teams of America’s deadliest commandos plunge into a fast and murderous game of hide, seek and strike on Iraqi sands.
