ISBN 07 7. Size 13 X 19.5cm. Cartography by Dave Arkwright(SAS). The Rhodesian Special Air Service, one of the most formidable fighting forces in the world. operated almost exclusively across the border during the long bitter bush war, undertaking deep-penetration missions against insurgents being harboured inside neighbouring Mozambique and Zambia. There were missions onto Botswana too, and at one stage, they were operating without benefit of passport in all three neighbouring black territories at the same time.
