Reviews

Appealing to young military buffs and history enthusiasts, this collection spans the years between each unit's earliest operations and their contemporary missions. . . .each title gives readers a glimpse of the subject operation including relevant information such as names and dates, while a corresponding time line at the bottom of the page identifies the conflict as well as the mission's location, goal, and outcome. . . .the series provides a solid starting point for independent research.-- "School Library Journal"
Concise chapters keep this entry in the Special Ops Mission Timelines series moving, while photos and paintings help pique interest.-- "Booklist"
