SPEC OPS: CASE STUDIES IN SPECIAL OPERATIONS WARFARE: THEORY AND PRACTICE

Book ID/图书代码: 11002014B70058

English Summary/英文概要: Vice Adm. William H. McRaven helped to devise the strategy for how to bring down Osama bin Laden, and commanded the courageous U.S. military unit that carried it out on May 1, 2011, ending one of the greatest manhunts in history. In Spec Ops, a well-organized and deeply researched study, McRaven analyzes eight classic special operations. Six are from WWII: the German commando raid on the Belgian fort Eben Emael (1940); the Italian torpedo attack on the Alexandria harbor (1941); the British commando raid on Nazaire, France (1942); the German glider rescue of Benito Mussolini (1943); the British midget-submarine attack on the Tirpitz (1943); and the U.S. Ranger rescue mission at the Cabanatuan POW camp in the Philippines (1945). The two post-WWII examples are the U.S. Army raid on the Son Tay POW camp in North Vietnam (1970) and the Israeli rescue of the skyjacked hostages in Entebbe, Uganda (1976). McRaven—who commands a U.S. Navy SEAL team—pinpoints six essential principles of “spec ops” success: simplicity, security, repetition, surprise, speed and purpose. For each of the case studies, he provides political and military context, a meticulous reconstruction of the mission itself and an analysis of the operation in relation to his six principles. McRaven deems the Son Tay raid “the best modern example of a successful spec op [which] should be considered textbook material for future missions.” His own book is an instructive textbook that will be closely studied by students of the military arts.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 海军中将William H. McRaven曾就制裁本拉登的战略计划提出建议并指挥美国军方力量于2011年5月1日实施了此次打击,终结了历史上规模最大的搜捕历程。本书构架清晰,所包含的案例研究内容翔实。McRaven分析了共八个经典的特别行动,其中六个发生在二战期间,包括德军突袭比利时EbenEmael要塞(1940),意大利使用鱼雷打击Alexandria港口(1941),英军突袭法国Nazaire(1942),德军使用滑翔机救援穆索里尼(1943),英军使用小型潜艇攻击德军超级战舰Tirpitz(1943),以及美军前往菲律宾Cabanatuan战俘集中营展开的救援行动(1945)。另两项战后实例为美军突袭越南北部的Son Tay战俘集中营(1970)以及以色列前往乌干达Entebbe救援被劫持的机上人质(1976)。

McRaven本人领导一支美国海军海豹突击队,在他看来,特殊行动的成功出于六个原则:简单,安保,重复,意外,速度以及目的。他在书中提供了每个案例的政治以及军事背景,详尽再现了行动过程并按照他的六原则进行了分析。本书是军事艺术的上好指导教材。(LYR)
