The Israeli government was persuaded at the last minute not to enter the Gulf War when they were told that it was the SAS who were hunting for Scud missiles and disrupting Iraqi communications. The SAS forces inside Iraq comprised two half-squadrons (30 men each with vehicles) and three much smaller foot patrols, one of which had the call sign, "Bravo Two Zero".;Corporal Terence Clayton, known as "Yorky", was a member of one of the half-squadrons. His group played a crucial role by destroying microwave communications lines, Scud missiles, weapons dumps and Iraqi soldiers. His 42-day story ricochets between stunning successes and extraordinary cock-ups, moving from corpse-strewn battlefields to stealthy operations at the dead of night.

With names changed for security reasons, this book reveals the true story of Australian SAS soldiers acting in secret across the globe. During the Vietnam war, the Australian Army sent a team of Special Air Services (SAS) soldiers to conduct covert missions into Cambodia. They were co-opted into the Defense Intelligence Organization (DIO) repertoire of Plausibly Deniable assets and deployed worldwide in locations where Australian forces should not be. This is a dramatized retelling of their covert operations—actual events which have never before been exposed. These operations include cross-sovereign-border infiltrations into Cambodia, as well as the elimination of Viet Cong munition dumps. Also revealed are an unauthorized fatal attack by United States Army helicopters on SAS warriors; the rescue of French tourists kidnapped by Muslim terrorists in Mindanao, Philippines; and Operation Eye of the Storm into Northern Kuwait/Eastern Iraq, which evolved into Operation Desert Storm. These covert operations included offshore intervention of East Timorese Fretilin Terrorists sabotaging Australian Oil Drilling activities in the Timor Sea; plus covert black ops elimination of Muslim Jihadist activities on homeland soil assisted by Israeli intelligence. This astounding exposé shines a light on the ways governments operate when dealing with situations they prefer not to mention.
