Elite Forces of World War II

World War Two served as a proving ground for the concept of elite forces.

Never in military history had such a commitment to covert operations, as well as highly trained and specialised formations from a few to more than a division in size, been seen in time of war.

This volume explores the men, the missions, the mayhem, and the mettle of these elite forces in the global conflict.

From the courage of the Commandos and the daring of the airborne divisions on D-Day to the Chindit jungle fighters and the masters of disguise and deception, elite forces brought a new dimension to modern warfare and left an indelible mark on the saga of the great conflict.
