General Carl Stiner Books

Tom Clancy and retired General Carl Stiner, U.S. Special Forces Command's second commander, trace the transformation of the Special Forces from the small core of outsiders of the 1950s, through the cauldron of Vietnam, to the rebirth of the Special Forces in the late 1980s and 1990s, and on into the new century as the bearer of the largest, most mixed, and most complex set of missions in the U.S. military.

In "Special Forces," Tom Clancy explores the elite Army Special Forces Groups, detailing their rigorous training, tools, and missions. The book features insights into recruitment, real deployment exercises, and a mini-novel showcasing a hypothetical intervention scenario, along with exclusive visuals and an interview with General Hugh Shelton.
