The SAS Escape, evasion and survivial manual

This book will be with me forever. Its one of the best books I have read on the subject of survival and escape techniques.

SAS S.E.R.E. Handbook

A excellently written book. After spending time with the SAS on TDY & again working with them as instructors at the International Long Range Recon School (ILRRPS), then in Weingarten Germany, it is good to see much of they're instructional material in print & available. In comparison to US Army FM 21-76, this manual is far superior. As a member of USASOC at Ft. Bragg, NC (USA), I have used this manual in the conduct of training on numerous instances. Even though I am a graduate of the JFKSWC SERE-"A" course at Ft.Bragg, much of the data presented is exceptional, e.g. "Escape & Evasion", is info not available to the average soldier, unfortunately. A proper Team Leader, or platoon sergeant, would find many ideas in establishing POI's for training. If you are currently on duty, or just interested in survival, this is a superior manual. Unfortunately there are MANY "survival manuals" on the market, that the best use for them is the pages as tinder. This isn't one of those. The material contained is a some what civilian-ized, however, the info is all workable & easy for anyone to understand. The Evasion & Escape chapter, however basic, is far more than is presented in most military manuals. Regardless of rank, add this to the "load-out pallet!" While not the only book of this nature, it is one of the best. Chris Ryan, SAS(ret.), was able to E & E from Iraq to Syria during the Gulf War, remarkable by any standards; much of the knowledge contained in this manual, i.e. extensive training in all climates, (with a lot of luck!), is one of the things that most certainly helped him "Beat the Clock.""Sine Pari"
