The SAS is the world's most elite special forces unit. Formed in 1941, the SAS has a long and distinguished history of operations in some of the world's most dangerous conflict zones. From the jungles of Burma to the mountains of Afghanistan, the SAS has consistently proven itself to be a formidable force.

In The Regiment, former SAS officer Chris Ryan provides an insider's look at the history, training, and operations of the SAS. Ryan, who served with the SAS for 10 years, has firsthand experience of the unit's rigorous selection process, its demanding training regime, and its deadly operations. The Regiment is the most comprehensive and authoritative account of the SAS ever written.

Ryan begins by tracing the history of the SAS from its humble origins as a small band of raiders to its current status as a global counter-terrorism force. He describes the unit's role in some of the world's most famous conflicts, including the Second World War, the Falklands War, and the Iraq War.

Ryan also provides a detailed look at the SAS's selection process and training regime. The SAS selection process is one of the most demanding in the world, and only a tiny fraction of those who apply are successful. Ryan describes the grueling physical and mental tests that candidates must endure, and he explains the importance of teamwork and leadership in the SAS.

Finally, Ryan gives a firsthand account of some of the SAS's most famous operations. He describes the raid on the Iranian embassy in London in 1980, the rescue of hostages in Sierra Leone in 2000, and the capture of Saddam Hussein in 2003. Ryan's account of these operations is gripping and informative, and it provides a unique insight into the world of the SAS.

The Regiment is the definitive story of the SAS. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in military history, special forces, or counter-terrorism. Ryan's insider's knowledge and his gripping writing style make The Regiment an unforgettable read.
