1-Recce was the sharpest, most versatile and deadliest specialist unit in the
entire South African army. These men were super fit, unbelievably tough and
stopped at nothing. Time and again they put their lives at risk in the execution of
highly secret operations behind enemy lines.
For decades these missions have been kept secret. Now, for the first time, the
Recces' most famous generals (including the legendary colonel Jan Breytenbach)
reveal their involvement in many highly sensitive political operations.
Explosive revelations are made of a collapsed mission to blow up key ANC
figures in the final years of the apartheid era. They tell of 1-Recce's involvement
in the controversial Border War and reveal the existence of a top secret squadron
in the then Rhodesian army.
After years of myths and secrecy, this book gives a new perspective on the
Recces and the way they operated invisibly behind the scenes.
