A must-read for anyone interested in clandestine operations and Cold War history." - Ralph Pezzullo. "The Secrets Of A Navy SEAL Revealed For The First Time. Sometime in 1965, James Hawes landed in the Congo with cash stuffed in his socks, morphine in his bag, and a basic understanding of his mission: recruit a mercenary navy and suppress the Soviet and Chinese backed rebels engaged in guerilla movements against a pro-Western government. According to the US government, he did not, and could not, exist; he knew he was on his own. He did not know that Che Guevara was attempting to export his revolution a few miles away. Cold War Navy SEAL gives unprecedented insight into a clandestine chapter in US history through the experiences of Hawes, a distinguished Navy frogman and late a CIA contractor. His journey began as an officer in the newly formed SEAL Team 2, where Hawes trained the commandos that instigatted the Gulf of Tonkin incident. Then the CIA tapped Hawes to deploy to the Congo. In vivid detail that rivals any action movie, Hawes recalls recruiting and managing some of the most dangerous mercenaries in Africa, battling rebels with a crew of anti-Castro Cuban exiles to complete a seemingly impossible mission, and expelling Guevara to stem the rising tide of communism in Africa. Complete with never-before-seen photographs and interviews with fellow operatives in the Congo, Cold War Navy SEAL is an unblinking look at a portion of Cold War history never told before." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
