Delta operators are among the most highly trained and secretive soldiers in the U.S. military, conducting hostage rescue, counter-terrorism, and high-value target operations around the world. While the Department of Defense rarely acknowledges the unit's existence or operations, its reputation as one of the world's elite special operations forces is well established.

The quiet professionals who write history in silence. Show more
